Arithmetic repetition exercise
A math drill is a repetitive exercise designed to build speed and accuracy with basic arithmetic—addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.
Students practice the same type of problem repeatedly until the answers become automatic: We did timed math drills every morning in third grade.
The method emphasizes memorization through repetition rather than conceptual understanding.
