Researchers have suggested there is the significant importance of automaticity development [fact fluency] in mathematics (Baker, A. and Cuevas, J., 2018). Providing multiplication cards for my students, for home use, will help students grow their knowledge and confidence in math. Of my 19 fourth-grade students, none have mastered their multiplication facts up to 12. Additionally, math activities with immediate feedback, such as smart-based math games, will help students in class because I cannot provide immediate feedback to every student for every equation. The pen games will be a wonderful supplement to our math lessons for students in groups, that need extra support, when I am teaching another math group. In conclusion, Baker and Cuevas (2018) state "when [math] automaticity is achieved at the desired developmental stage in a child’s life, they are more likely to have continued success in mathematics. Automaticity is an achievable goal for students". I too believe that multiplication fluency (automaticity) is an achievable goal for my talented group of 4th-grade students. Based on the assumptions from Baker and Cuevas, the requested materials for my classroom will have a positive impact on my students' success in math and life outcomes. Baker, Austin T. and Cuevas, Josh (2018) "The Importance of Automaticity Development in Mathematics," Georgia Educational Researcher: Vol. 14 : Iss. 2 , Article 2. DOI: 10.20429/ger.2018.140202
