MATHS FLUENCY TASKS

This term, all year levels have been incorporating Maths Fluency tasks into their maths lessons. These are short, timed activities that focus on addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Developing quick and automatic recall of number facts is an important skill for students. When students can access their maths knowledge accurately and with ease, they are better able to apply it to more complex and challenging, higher-order thinking tasks.

Our goal is for key mathematical facts and procedures to move from something students need to actively think about to something they know automatically. This automaticity frees up their thinking, allowing them to focus on and succeed in more challenging tasks.

Students have been enjoying tracking their personal growth, and it’s great to see them becoming quicker and more accurate each day.
