Time's Up on Timed tests

Fact fluency matters, but timed tests give students more anxiety than they develop students mathematical fluency. It s time for educators to give timed tests a time out. But, what's the alternative? This book is designed to answer that question. It provides teachers with a wealth of practical ways to teach students the facts, help them understand the facts, and give them strategies to become fluent with their grade level s fact fluency expectations. Time's Up on Timed Tests builds real fact fluency--without a timer! The book covers fluency in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, with practical strategies for purposeful practice, including reproducibles of games and activities.
