Reply To: Lesson 4-2: Automaticity vs. Memorization

[Dawn Oliver]

I was taught to memorize math facts along with other things in school. When I am in a classroom with kids that don’t know math facts I find it hard for myself to find ways to help them remember without memorization. Sometimes i learn new ways from the students. Songs are a good way to learn things, like the alphabet, etc. This is an area I am trying to improve on to teach math conceptually.

I am also curious if there will be more talk in this module of the Counting Principles.
