Speed math

Many of our students will say that "Speed Math" is one of their favorite activities in 1R! Every week we have been practicing our math facts. Students use three different colors, one for each minute. It is fun to see how many math problems we can complete in three minutes! The boys and girls are using different strategies to help them learn these math facts. Some strategies we have practiced include putting the bigger number in our head and counting up, using our fingers and using the number line on our desks. Take a look at a few of our mathematicians hard at work!
