A parent pose la question :
My son is in 4th grade and is a very bright student. He is in the gifted program and makes straight A's on his report card and has through out school so far. My question is how can I teach him to memorize his basic math facts? He does well in math, but when he is placed in a times situation for completing math fact sheets he freezes up. He can not recall the basic facts when questioned at any other time either. He will calculate the answer in his head, like 6 + 3, but he can't just come out with the answer quickly. How can I help him?
