Math flash cards
1. Do not cut out or draw on flash card papers.
2. Start practising from 1 to 10, memorizing one page at a time.
3. Once one page has been memorized without any mistakes, sign the bottom right of the paper and have it returned to me.
4. When I receive a signed paper, I will quiz the student that same day.
-If the student said all the facts without mistakes, I will put a check beside your signature and then that paper can go home to be cut out.
-If all facts were not memorized properly, there will be an "x" beside the signature which means that the student will need to continue practising that paper.
5. Once all papers have been memorized, you should continue to practise the flash cards in the form of a game at least once a week.
*You can buy cut out flash cards at a dollar store or at Costco if you wish to have those available to you from the start.
