Computer Lab

Our class visited the computer lab for the first time this year today. We learned about a new program called XtraMath. This program allows students to increase their speed and accuracy in arithmetic. Your child will be using this program both in the computer lab, and also during work places at math in the classroom. If you'd like, you can have your child use it on your home computer. What they complete at home will be tracked here at school. I am able to see the results of how they are doing. This will allow me to alter my instruction in the classroom to meet each student's needs and also track each student's progress as they become more and more accurate and fluent when solving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems.  If you'd like your child to participate in this program at home, go to https://www.xtramath.org/.  Look in your child's red folder today to receive their individualized pin number.  Thanks for supporting your child's learning at home!
