Using my Echo Dot to Improve Math Fluency in my First Grade Classroom

I got an Echo Dot recently and was so impressed at how easy it was to use I decided to get one for my classroom. I decided to make activities that allow students to set individual goals for themselves and also check their work. Here is how it works...

1) Students set a goal for how many facts they can solve. 

2) Students set a time limit.

3) Students follow the instructions on the paper and say "Alexa, set the timer for..."

4) Students begin to solve the addition/subtraction problems.

5) When the timer goes off students check their work by following the Alexa prompt, "Alexa, what is 2 + 2?

6) Students correct wrong answers and write down how many they got correct.
