Incoming 5th Graders

For 4th grade students entering 5th grade

Welcome!

You are interested in supporting your child with math-based prompts and conversations, and that makes me incredibly happy. You have chosen to join me on this journey, so I thank you for that.

Here is the overview of what we will be doing:

  • Every 3 days, you will get a new "lesson" to try out at home
  • Some are projects, while others are quick prompts
  • Each will come with a video explanation that is accessible for parents
  • That same video will be accessible for students as well
  • Each assignment will have a discussion board for you to share thoughts, ask questions, and push thinking
