3©2021 Levels 3–5 Fluency Routines
Fluent retrieval of basic arithmetic facts is essential to math proficiency . Students should have mastered addition and subtraction of whole numbers through 20 by the end of Level 2, and they will continue to need to rely on fluent use of these facts to manipulate larger whole numbers, fractions, and decimals . In addition, by the end of Level 3, students should be able to fluently multiply and divide within 100 and be fluent in multiplying all single-digit factors . Achieving fluency with these facts will enable them to accurately and efficiently engage with more complex operations, including those involving rational numbers, and to solve novel problems .
The following fluency routines are designed to help students in Levels 3–5 continue to develop number sense, enhance their understanding of the relationships within the number system, and attain automaticity with all arithmetic facts . These routines push students to think about the relationships between and among numbers and to use this understanding to develop strategies for using these relationships in increasingly complex mathematics, including manipulating rational numbers and solving multi-step word problems . Discussion after routines allows classmates to share their ideas and the visual or mathematical structures they used to complete the routine .
Every AchieveMath lesson includes a recommended fluency routine, and students should spend at least 6 minutes of every class working to become fluent in fact retrieval and enhance their number sense . If you feel your students would benefit from a different routine than the one outlined in the lesson, use the descriptions that follow to construct your own activity .

Discourse Routines Levels 3–5
Math discourse is essential to the development of deep, fluent, and flexible math thinking and problem-solving . Students who engage in structured discussions about math become more motivated and empowered math practitioners . As students present their thinking and receive affirmation, they become more confident and increasingly eager to take risks, explore new concepts, and tackle new problems . Math ideas often gain credibility with students as their peers outline the connections and discoveries they’ve made, and a student’s logic can register with their peers more deeply than their teacher’s explanations . Students also learn important skills such as taking turns, collaborating, summarizing, justifying, extrapolating, and constructive disagreement .
The AchieveMath program provides discourse routines that foster student thinking and discussion . Discourse routines are included throughout the Focus and Reteach lessons as students explore math concepts, demonstrate their knowledge and abilities, develop their math vocabulary, and become increasingly fluent and reflective math practitioners . You should feel empowered to choose the routines that will best encourage your students to feel enthusiastic about sharing their ideas . Many of the routines include variations you might use to meet the needs of students who struggle with writing, organizing their thoughts, or feeling comfortable participating in a discussion .

Q-ADE
Materials: Q-ADE anchor chart
It can be challenging for students to carry on conversations . Help students feel more confident engaging with their peers by using the mnemonic Q-ADE, which stands for “question, agree, disagree, and elaborate .” Use the Q-ADE anchor chart or the table below to encourage students as they engage in small-group or whole-class interactions .
QUESTION• Why did you choose to solve it that way?• Why did you choose to represent the problem
that way?• How did you do that?• What is a different way to do it?• Where did you find that information?• Does your answer make sense? Why or why
not?• Would this way work too? How might it work?
AGREE• I got the same answer!• I represented it the same way .• I like the way you solved it .• I got the same answer, but I got it a different
way .• I think that answer is reasonable .• I’m going to use that way next time!• That makes so much sense!• That’s easier than my way .
DISAGREE• I got a different answer .• I tried it in a different way .• I don’t think that answer makes sense .• What if . . . • Have you thought of trying . . . • I think this way might be easier . . .
ELABORATE• I want to add . . .• I found some more information . . .• Yes, and . . .• I made a connection to . . .• I think it would also work if . . .• I was surprised that . . .• Could we try it this way . . . • Could we show it this way . . .
Use this routine:• When having a whole-class discussion . • When setting up students to discuss their work in pairs or small groups . • When students are struggling with how to discuss their work or their ideas .
Consider keeping the Q-ADE anchor chart posted in your classroom .

Conversation StarterGive this award to students who are willing to be a part of the discussion . This award is for when students do an especially good job explaining their thinking, commenting on other’s thinking, asking questions, making compelling observations, or otherwise engaging in math discourse . Make sure to acknowledge the specific way in which the recipient helped others to be part of the conversation or enhanced other students’ understanding of math .
Featured TeacherGive this award to students who help others understand a concept or procedure . This award may be paired with the motivational routine You Be the Teacher, but you may also give it to students who share something interesting with the class during the ISS or who teach a partner something during Guided Practice . Make sure to acknowledge the specific skill, concept, or procedure the recipients taught to others and to highlight their expertise in this area .
Fluency FanaticGive this award to students who work especially hard during the Fluency section of the lesson or who master a difficult piece of arithmetic (for example, if a student memorized all the multiplication tables) . Make sure to acknowledge what the recipients learned, their interesting way of thinking about something, or the hard work they put into mastering this essential piece of mathematics .
I Like Your MathGive this award to students who completed a problem in an interesting way or were especially careful and precise in how they solved a problem . Make sure to specifically acknowledge the parts of the students’ math that you found elegant or unique .
Inventor Give this award to students who invent a new way of doing a problem or who try something new in class . This award can be paired with Eponymous Strategies . Make sure to specifically acknowledge that the recipients came up with something new or applied other math understanding to a new procedure .
Real-WorldGive this award to students who make a real-world connection to a math concept or representation . Emphasize that students who can make a deep and relevant connection between math and the real world must really understand the math under discussion .

Badges and Certificates
The following badges and certificates are included as an optional way to celebrate your students’ hard work and to serve as a motivational tool to inspire students to try hard, persevere, and explain their thinking . Some teachers hand these out formally during a brief ceremony, and they may be accompanied by a small reward or stickers . Students should be encouraged to take the awards home and share them with their families . As you hand out the awards, narrate the specific behaviors that led to the student receiving the award .
Each AchieveMath lesson suggests one or more awards you might want to give to students in specific situations, but you can give out an award to a student who shows the desired behavior at any time . Consider making multiple copies of each certificate and badge so that you are ready to award them to students during your lessons . You don’t need to give out an award every class—in fact, they should be rare enough that students feel special when they receive them . You may give an award to all students in your class or to one student who worked especially hard .
