Parent Resources

Thanks for supporting your child with their math! Here are some resources to help them with their work at home.

Math Homework - Some Suggestions…..

    1. Set aside a quiet, designated space for doing schoolwork at home.
    2. Decide if electronics will be allowed in this space, and whether music might help serve to focus or distract.
    3. In addition to where, determine when your student will complete their schoolwork. Creating routines & habits around homework can be very helpful.
    4. Look at your student’s What’s Up Book to make sure you are both clear on the assignment.
    5. Check out instructional videos and practice examples on www.khanacademy.org.
    6. Watch entertaining and helpful videos on the Math Antics YouTube Channel.
    7. If needed, double check the Homework Assignments posted on this site for all of the classes each week.
    8. Your student’s Math Google Classroom might also be a helpful resource to check, since some assignments will be posted there.
    9. Consider purchasing the resource book Math On Hand (grades 5,6) or Math on Call (grades 6,7,8) to keep at home. They can be found inexpensively ($3-5) at www.thriftbooks.com.
    10. Consider purchasing the Homework Helper books, created specifically to support parents supporting their children at home with math.
