Students should choose at least 2 afternoons during the week and one weekend day to do a whole session of xtramath.org with the Beat the Teacher section. They can choose which nights they would like to go on and they can always do extra days. It is very important for students to know their math facts. If your child does not have access to xtramath then they can practice with flashcards or with a game if you have one that practices the facts.
