Tool Name
xtramath.org
Tool Description
XtraMath® helps students transition from counting or calculating the basic math facts to recalling them. Quickly recalling math facts, instead of calculating them, frees up mental resources for higher-level operations.
XtraMath’s timed activities encourage students to answer questions as quickly as possible. When combined with the spaced repetition of problems, this efficiently develops recall. The three-second threshold is carefully selected to be long enough to type in a recalled answer but not long enough for the student to comfortably enter a counted or calculated answer.

You may add students to classrooms by either (1) sharing the classroom name and password with the student, who then creates a student username and password, or (2) adding the student manually and sharing the student’s username and password with the student. You provide us a student “nickname”, a short name by which you will recognize the student when reviewing progress reports. You will/shall/must provide us with the absolute least amount of personally identifiable information about students necessary to perform your role as an educator. First name, final initial only if needed. They suggest usernames and passwords for classrooms and students. You may change these to something easier to remember.
