Math Practice

We are very excited to be able to offer your students the ability to practice their math skills over the summer on IXL, an interactive online math program that provides teachers, students and parents with valuable insight about our students' abilities. By using this system we will be able to view any of IXL's 37 reports, which include data on grade-level proficiency, trouble spots, and even progress toward meeting state and common core standards.

Students can access practice problems from grades 3-8 making it useful for both the student who wants to reinforce their skills from this year and for those students who would like to get a head start on the content they will be learning next year.

For math summer packet work this year we would like to encourage each student to practice their math skills for approximately thirty minutes each week. Each student will receive a username and password in their school emails by July 1st and they will need to print out this information as school emails will be cleaned out during the summer. If you are travelling this summer and will not have access to the Internet please encourage your students to practice as much as they can.

We feel that IXL will be an invaluable tool to help your students reach their potential in math and look forward to following their progress over the next few months.



All students..3/4 and 5/6...check your email for a message from Mrs. Nast regarding math.
