Good Afternoon Families,

I've attached two short articles to support the math work you do with your children at home. One article provides some easy and practical ways to incorporate math into our daily lives. The second article shares some ideas around instilling a positive mindset around math while our kids are still young.

chào buổi sáng gia đình,

Marilyn Burns is someone I follow to support my math learning. You can find her online at http://www.marilynburnsmathblog.com/.


Please take 5 minutes to watch this video that Marilyn shared on her twitter account. In the video a doctor uses math to help us understand the importance of social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Good Morning Families.

In a previous post I mentioned the LAPS uses INVESTIGATIONS as our primary math curriculum. Below I am attaching a great resource created by INVESTIGATIONS for at home learning. The website includes at home math activities as well as online games specific to each grade level (K2-3). This is a great supplement to any math work that your child's teacher is assigning.

Another great feature about the website is that the activities and games are available in Español.
