“Mathletics” and weekly update
Hello families!
I am excited to introduce “Mathletics” to you. It is an online program that you can use with your child at home to practice and reinforce math concepts. Our school has a license to provide this program to our class. Your child has received a specific username and password so they can use the program at home with your permission. You will want to supervise your child while they start out with this program to ensure they understand how to navigate the site. We practiced using the site in class so they should be somewhat familiar with how it works. I recommend no more than 10 minutes per session, 3-4 times per week because I feel it is important to limit screen time for children.
Your child’s username, password, and website address are taped into the front of their planner for easy access at home. Thank you for your support!
