FASTT system (Fluency and Automaticity through
Systematic Teaching with Technology) to help all students
develop fluency with basic math facts.
Through his research with struggling students Dr. Ted
Hasselbring identified a need for a targeted math fact
fluency intervention. Discouraged with drill and practice
programs, Hasselbring developed this fun approach which
helps students establish a lasting mental link between the
facts and their answers. The program automatically
differentiates instruction based on each student’s
individual fluency levels in customized,10-minute daily
sessions.
Students are eager to build fluency because of the targeted
instruction, engaging practice games, and embedded
motivators.
Parents and clinic professionals benefit from instantaneous
progress monitoring,
comprehensive reports, and a simple implementation
model.
This proven effective program helps all students achieve
math fact fluency – and build the confidence in
mathematics they need to succeed. This program is only
