6TH GRADE ONLY!
You’re invited to join our Math Facts Lunch Bunch!
We’ve noticed that many students are still working on building automaticity—that quick recall of math facts without having to stop and think.
During Lunch Bunch, we’ll practice math facts in fun and engaging ways, with a focus on speed and accuracy. This extra practice will help you feel more confident and ready for success in math class and beyond.
Bring your lunch (or grab at school), bring your energy, and get ready to sharpen those math fact skills!
