Rainbow Math is a routine designed to help students practice their math facts and gain automaticity with facts. Grouped in sets of 10 flash cards at a time, students add on additional facts as each level is mastered (each level is a new color). The flash cards are put on a ring so your student can easily flip through their facts for practice (at home and at school). Students are motivated to practice and learn their facts so they can add all the colors of the rainbow to their ring.
In providing N & M with pre-writing activities, I was keen to introduce them to rainbow writing. Rainbow writing is basically where children practise whole movements of letter writing many times over. Depending on the medium used, they may repeat the movements using different colours or just simply repeat the movements over and over again (e.g. in a tray filled with sand or salt or over sandpaper letters). In our first week of rainbow writing, N & M focused on straight lines. Using activities by Meeks, L & Easson, V (1997) the pre-writing exercise encouraged them to look where they were going. Their aim was to draw a straight line from the bird to the worm (or cat to the mouse), paying particular attention to: 1  Not lift their crayon/texta/pencil; 2  Go quickly. 3  Start right on the cross (next to the bird) 4  Stop right on the dot (next to the worm)
