Homework: Every week, students practice their math facts in class to build quick recall and confidence. Here is how it works:

• Weekly Class Practice: Students work on their math facts in class each week.

• Corrections/ Completetion as Homework: If any problems need extra attention, those corrections become homework.

• Earn an Eagle Buck: Students who get all their facts correct—either on the first try in class or after turning in their completed homework corrections—earn an Eagle Buck!

• Bi-Weekly Quiz: After two weeks of practice and feedback, students take a Math Facts Quiz to show what they've mastered.

This setup encourages students to keep trying, reassures them that making mistakes is just part of learning, and still rewards their hard work!
