Sprints: Math Fact Practice

A math fact practice that is based on Singapore math is know as a "Sprint". This video shows the steps from start to finish: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDAG405awRk. Let me know if you would like to learn more. I have a few sample sprints plus they are available for purchase at a reasonable price http://www.singaporemath.com/Math_Sprints_Blackline_Master_1_p/msblm1.htm, and we can also learn to write our own and build a library of sprints. Notice the attitude in the video of perseverance, enthusiasm, and building confidence through improvement. It also shows learning based on brain research in action.
