Family Letter_ Math Is….pdfThis week in math class we will be working on the following:
Growth Mindset vs Fixed Mindset discussion
What characteristics support productive growth and learning?
How can struggle be productive?
What do we do or say to ourselves when we reach our frustration level?
Reveal Math Course Diagnostic (paper/pencil based)
This year, Montclair Public Schools has adapted and will implement Reveal Math as the math curriculum in the elementary schools. Please see the introductory letter from Reveal Math below. (Note: The online platform and usernames/passwords are not accessible yet.)
This diagnostic provides baseline data and pinpoints which math skills a student has mastered or needs instruction and/or practice.
IXL Math Benchmark Assessment (adaptive computer-based assessment)
IXL also provides baseline data and identifies areas of strength and areas that require instruction and/or practice.
More "getting to know you" activities and practicing routines
