Practice
Just like any skill, you need to practice to be good at it.
It is important to not try to master all the facts at the same time. Master a few facts at a time and then do a mixed practice at the end.
- Decide on which facts you want to practice.
- Practice those facts.
- Take a break.
- Repeat.
Then after you think you've mastered all the facts for an operation, then do a mixed practice game.
Here are three good sites for practicing the basic facts.
- Multiplication.com - Use Interactive Games or "Self Correcting Quizzes" (online worksheets). These can be found at www.multiplication.com/resources.htm.
- Math Trainer from mathsisfun.com - Select the operation and numbers you want to work on. Click GO and then type the answers. www.mathsisfun.com/numbers/math-trainer-multiply.html
- www.aaastudy.com/add.htm , www.aaastudy.com/sub.htm , www.aaastudy.com/mul.htm , www.aaastudy.com/div.htm
Here is a video on
- Multiplication.com's interactive games (the self-correcting quizzes/online worksheets work just like the pre-test).
- Math Trainer from mathsisfun.com.
- Practicing with www.aaamath.com (which is equivalent to www.aaastudy.com).
