The Learnercise Basic Fact Fluency Math Integration program motivates your students to memorize basic facts in counting backwards and also moving while learning. The curriculum utilizes multi-sensory integration strategies and has children jumping, singing meaningful lyrics to music, and learning the basics of how to count backwards.

As they listen to the song, children move to the correct numbers of the lyrics on the Learnercise Phone or Clock Mat. Counting Backwards for learning division gives students a visual of a theme to focus on while moving. This links strategic understanding with visual representations. For example, children count backwards along to such themes as Backwards by Seven, Blast Off Counting Backwards by Nine, and Backwards Counting Salsa by Twelve. The accompanying curriculum reinforces counting skills by using themes with colorful worksheets and flashcards.
