The Thinking Strategies program provides a comprehensive approach for teaching basic facts. It is designed based on three key principles.
Chunking and ordering facts. Each level focuses on a specific fact or grouping of facts. The grouping and ordering of the levels was chosen purposefully to enable students to learn the basic facts most efficiently and easily.
Thinking Strategies. Multiple strategies are presented for each fact and often include models. Students are encouraged to use as many strategies as possible to complete the facts.
Practice. Many different/fun practice opportunities are provided to allow students to reach mastery of the basic facts.
