Math Support:
"One of the most significant things parents can do is to help their children understand the normalcy and the value of struggle in mathematics. Learning math ultimately comes down to one thing: the ability, and choice, to put one's brain around a problem--to stare past the confusion, and struggle forward rather than flee."

Math Homework:
Math homework is a chance for students to practice what they have learned in class and for families to see what students are working on in grade level math. It is also the best opportunity for your child to receive one-on-one math support. Teachers will check for homework completion every week, but we would like parents to monitor your student's progress on DreamBox. If the suggested skills are too challenging or too easy for your student, please help them choose some more appropriate skills to practice at home.
If your family would prefer to practice math skills in a different way (practice books, worksheets, flash cards, math games or other online resources), please send in your student's work OR send me an email before Friday morning letting me know how they completed their 30 minutes of weekly math practice.

Literacy Homework
In Level 2, we feel the most important homework for your student is to read or listen to reading for at least 20-30 minutes every night.
