I am encouraging all of my students to use the www..xtramath.com website to practice their addition and subtraction basic facts. Using the XtraMath website helps students transition from counting or calculating the basic math facts to recalling them. Recalling math facts instead of calculating them frees up mental resources for higher-level operations.
XtraMath uses timed quizzes and practices to encourage students to answer the questions as quickly as possible combined with spaced repetition to efficiently develop recall. The three-second threshold is carefully selected to be long enough to type in a recalled answer but not long enough for the student to comfortably enter a counted or calculated answer.
Your child has been given a pin number to enter the Xtramath site. This pin number is written on the inside cover of their AR Log book and on their classroom planner. Please click on the icon to view the website.
