Rocket Math is done in kindergarten through 6th grade at LVCS. It is a program dedicated to learning math facts, and I LOVE IT! Students usually do too ;)
We all remember those one minute timed test on math facts when we were younger...well these are the same since students will be taking a one minute timed test ever day, but there is a twist! Students are only required to complete their goal amount of problems, NOT the entire fact sheet.
Students will verbally practice with their partner for one minute, then take a one minute timed test. If they reach or pass their goal number they move on to the next set of problems...if they do not reach it they take their quiz home and practice it to try again the next day. (More details are given about home practice in the Homework section of this website)
