Math Practice at Home

Yes, we don't have required math homework, but we are finding that some of our 4th graders lack their basic math facts including addition and subtraction. They also need more practice in the skills they are learning. 


Xtra Math 

Xtra Math is a great place to practice math facts DAILY. We recommend at least 10 minutes a day at home. We will be using Xtra Math in class,too. 10 minutes each day will help them commit the facts to memory! 

Khan Academy
Today we set up our accounts on Khan Academy.  [ www.khanacademy.org/mappers ]
This site allows students practice on math skills based on their individual MAP scores. This is a GREAT resource because is individualized practice geared to the strengths and weaknesses of your child.  Students have their RIT scores in their "TAKE HOME FOLDERS."  10 minutes a day would really boost your kids in their math skills.
