Silas and Titus have been working on their math facts and their handwriting skills at the same time using Page a Day Math Starter Kits. Page a Day Math offers digital or physical math kits that focus on fact fluency and handwriting improvement. There are several kits available - Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, and Pre-K. They also offer handwriting books, like Super Sight Words, Adorable Adjectives, and Cool Chemistry. I printed out the Division Starter Kit for Silas and the Multiplication Starter Kit and Super Sight Words Handwriting Book for Titus.
The Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division Kits each include 10-13 books, 3 math bonuses, and 2 handwriting bonuses. Each book in the kit contains copy-work for the math facts. For example, the first book in the Division Kit is called, "Dividing By One." Each page has a new fact to work on, like 1 divided by 1. Your child will trace the division fact several times, as well as some review facts. For the first few lessons, the review facts are multiplication, but after that they are the division facts your child has learned.
Each book contains different fact families. Book 1 is "Dividing By One," Book 2 is "Dividing By Two," and so on. The other books in the kits work in the same way, with each book focusing on adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing by one number.
Each Kit contains two handwriting bonus books as well. The Division Kit comes with "Adorable Adjectives" and "Silly Sight Words" in cursive.
Silas and Titus each have their books in their Summer Learning Binders and complete one page a day. It really is helping them with their math facts! Working on one new fact a day doesn't overwhelm them, and they are getting plenty of review with the other facts. It takes them around 5-10 minutes a day to complete a worksheet, so they don't complain at all. It is also something they can do independently! Titus has not learned multiplication before now, so he is really getting a great introduction to the facts. By the time he reaches multiplication in his curriculum this year, he will already know several fact families! Silas learned the multiplication and division facts this year in his math curriculum, but he really struggled with the division facts. I can see such an improvement so far in how quickly he is recalling the answers to the division and even the multiplication review facts.
