Building Fact Fluency: A Toolkit for Multiplication & Division
By Graham Fletcher & Tracy Johnston Zager
Building Fact Fluency: A Toolkit for Multiplication & Division helps students develop deep conceptual understanding of the operations and fact fluency at the same time. Research-based and standards-aligned, each toolkit invites students to think strategically about mathematics through multiple, rich, real-world contexts. These accessible contexts allow students to see how number facts connect to a wide variety of mathematical situations, explore the properties of the operations, and build a foundation of strategies they can draw from efficiently and confidently.
How It Works
Factors and Contexts
Each of the factors are taught through three real-world contexts supported by a Lesson String of related activities, tasks, and games.
Lesson String (Overview and Samples)
A Lesson String is a cluster of related activities, tasks, and games for each context. Select from one of the two contexts below to access sample Lesson String activities.
Companion Website Overview
Each toolkit includes access to a robust Companion Website that includes a variety of downloadable, printable, and projectable resources as well as built-in professional development including implementation support and on-demand professional learning videos.
