Reminders
If your child has reading goals I have sent home a list of Fry Words. These are the most common words you would find when you read. Please have your child review these once a day. It should only take 5 minutes. If it is taking longer, then focus on 10-20 words at a time and add onto it daily.

Cool Math 4 Kids
www.coolmath4kids.com/
This is a super fun website for students to use to better their math skills in all areas! I have used it in the classroom with students so they should know how to access and use this at home. They may play against other students which makes the competition even more fun! Even though they may be playing against other students, they do not have access to communicate with them in any way! On top of playing these games, students are given an accuracy score on how they did!
***Don't let your child try and trick you! There is a website called Coolmath and it DOES NOT have any math games on it. Make sure you use the website above for the math games.

Xtramath
Many different teachers this year are using XtraMath with students. This is a website that takes only 7-10 minutes to complete daily. It will place your child in either adding, subtracting, multiplication, or division. The teacher may also override the placement to have your child work on a specific area. If you would like your child to use Xtramath to continue their skills, please let me know and I can add them in. I recommend having your child complete this daily and I can monitor their scores and send you updates.
