Building math fact fluency is essential for your child's success in math! When children know basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts by heart, they can solve problems more easily and with confidence. This fluency frees up their mental energy to tackle more complex math concepts and real-world applications. Practicing math facts regularly at home, even for just a few minutes each day, can make a big difference in your child's progress and enjoyment of math. All PCPS students have a Reflex Math account to practice math fact fluency online at school or at home. Students can access Reflex through their Clever account. If you need sign-on information, please contact your child's teacher.
