Fact Fluency for Addition and Subtraction
Reinforcing Strategies
The link below contains strategies you should use to reinforce strategy development to help with fact fluency. Research shows only 30% of the population are rote memorizers. Therefore, memorizing your facts is an ineffective strategy to improve fact fluency.
