I am so excited to work with your student in this upcoming school year! My goals for your student align right with the Arizona State Standards:
1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
4. Model with mathematics.
5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
6. Attend to precision.
7. Look for and make use of structure.
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
And that Math can be fun!
I would like your student to have the following supplies this year for our math class. If you need assistance in providing your child with the supplies listed please email me at kegroff@pvschools.net and we can make sure they have what they need.
