"Fluency" and "Automaticity" Those are two words I hear often concerning reading and mathematics skills. The Common Core standards include the word "fluent" in many Mathematics Standards. So the goal for our students is to have an automatic recall of alphabet letters, numbers, and quantity of numbers (among other skills). I have made a Mathematics Fluency packet which is designed like the DIBELS Fluency below, but includes Math Skills. The skills covered in this packet include: numerals 1-100, number words (0-20), tally marks (1-10), ten frames (1-20), dice (1-10), 2-D shapes, 3-D shapes, coins and time. You can print these sheets and bind them with a binder comb, or punch holes and use rings. You could also use them as individual sheets either laminated or in sheet protectors. Use them for a quick informal assessment, as a warm-up or review on a document camera during a whole group lesson, or to practice fluency for a small group.

Here are some sample sheets from the packet.
Thanks for sharing Jennifer!!
ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome!
ReplyDeleteThis looks fabulous, but not being a Dibels person, I don't know how to use it - can you give me a quick explanation? Thanks!

Sure! I use these in my small math groups to develop fluency. We read each row chorally together, or I may call on one student to read a certain color row (that is why I color code them). The goal is to read the numbers, tally marks, ten frames, words etc. as fast as possible, without having to stop and think about it- it is automatic. So we just read row after row-could use a timer with the activity to see how fast the students read them.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to say-it is just a good warm up or practice. You could use it informally as an assessment. Hope I explained it well. I wish I could show you!
DeleteAh-mazing. Thanks so much for sharing!! Will definitely be using this to gain all that fluency.
ReplyDeleteYeah-rah, so glad that you like it. It took all day to make. I think my Microsoft Word is an older version-I saw the spinning wheel all day long!
DeleteThis is awesome! You rock!
