Most educators also agree that success at higher levels of math hinges on this fundamental skill. But what's the best way to get there? Are flash cards, drills, and timed tests the answer? If so, then why do students go into the upper elementary grades (and beyond) still counting on their fingers or experiencing math anxiety? What does research say about teaching basic math facts so they will stick? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eMath Fact Fluency, \u003c\/em\u003e experts Jennifer Bay-Williams and Gina Kling provide the answers to these questions--and so much more.
