As we move into November, it’s the perfect time to pause and make sure you’re on target—both in pacing and student progress. Here are a couple of ideas to help you stay on target.
🎯 Stay on Target with Pacing
The key to finishing the year strong is maintaining a steady pace. Want to know if you’re on target? Our free pacing schedules help you stay on track by breaking the year into manageable segments so you can plan confidently and ensure steady progress for every student.
Set aside time each week to glance at your pacing guide and note where you are in the sequence. Small adjustments now prevent big catch-ups later!
🎯 Help Students Stay on Target with Fact Fluency
When students lack fact fluency, lessons naturally slow down. Strengthening math facts will help your students learn new concepts more easily and reduce frustration. The best way to do that? Play math card games!
Games like Corners™, Go to the Dump, or Multiplication Memory build automaticity through strategy and fun—keeping students engaged while reinforcing the critical skills they need. Just a few minutes a day can make a big difference!
Struggling to learn a new game every day? Choose one game to focus on all week! Challenge your students to play by forming teams or setting an end-of-the-week goal for total points earned or the number of math facts practiced.
Staying on target isn’t about perfection—it’s about consistency, preparation, and keeping math fun and meaningful.
