Do you struggle with effective and motivating drill
and practice ideas for your classroom? Studies show that students in
the elementary grades need 5 - 9 minutes of daily computational practice
to achieve fluency with the basic facts of addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and division. This workshop gives you challenging and
captivating drill and practice activities to enable elementary students to
learn and maintain their basic facts.
Kim Sutton will share exciting methods to motivate
students through whole class and small group instruction. These
ready-to-use activities go far beyond timed drill. Kim has created special
