Use this comprehensive resource to improve your students’ overall math fl uency, which will promote greater self-confi dence in their math skills as well as provide the everyday practice necessary to succeed in testing situations.

Eighth-Grade Math Minutes features 100 “Minutes.” Each Minute consists of 10 classroom-tested problems of varying degrees of diffi culty for students to complete within a one- to two-minute period. This unique format offers students an ongoing opportunity to improve their own fl uency in a manageable, nonthreatening format. The quick, timed format, combined with instant feedback, makes this a challenging and motivational assignment students will look forward to using each day. Students become active learners as they discover mathematical relationships and apply acquired understanding to complex situations and to the solution of realistic problems in each Minute.

that they must recall the number without additional support.

Eighth-Grade Math Minutes can be used in a variety of ways. Use one Minute a day as a warm-up activity, review, assessment, or homework assignment. Other uses include incentive projects and extra credit. Keep in mind that students will get the most benefi t from their daily Minute if they receive immediate feedback. If you assign the Minute as homework, correct it in class as soon as students are settled at the beginning of the day.

If you use the Minutes as a timed activity, place the paper facedown on the students’ desks or display it as a transparency. Use a clock or kitchen timer to measure one minute—or more if needed. As the Minutes become more advanced, use your discretion on extending the time frame to several minutes if needed. Encourage students to concentrate on completing each problem successfully and not to dwell on problems they cannot complete. At the end of the allotted time, have the students stop working. Then, read the answers from the answer key (pages 108–112) or display them on a transparency. Have students correct their own work and record their scores on the Minute Journal reproducible (page 6). Then, have the class go over each problem together to discuss the solution(s). Spend more time on problems that were clearly challenging for most of the class. Tell students that problems that seemed diffi cult for them will appear again on future Minutes, and that they will have another opportunity for success.

Students will ultimately learn to apply these strategies to other timed-test situations.

The Minutes are designed to improve math fl uency and should not be included as part of a student’s overall math grade. However, the Minutes provide an excellent opportunity for you to see which skills the class as a whole needs to practice or review. This information can help you plan the content of future math lessons. A class that consistently has diffi culty with reading graphs, for example, may make excellent use of your lesson in that area, especially if the students know they will have another opportunity to achieve success in reading graphs on a future Minute. Have students fi le their Math Journal and Minutes for the week in a location accessible to you both. You will fi nd that math skills that require review will be revealed during class discussions of each Minute. You may fi nd it useful to review the week’s Minutes again at the end of the week with the class before sending them home with students.

While you will not include student Minute scores in your formal grading, you may wish to recognize improvements by awarding additional privileges or offering a reward if the entire class scores above a certain level for a week or more. Showing students that you recognize their efforts provides additional motivation to succeed.
