Today, I sent home some personalized log-in information for a fantastic program called Front Row Math. I'm excited to try this as it's designed to help students practice Common Core aligned mathematical skills at their own level, which ensures that every student improves his/her math skills or is challenged in a greater way. The program quickly learns what your child needs and tailors the activities accordingly. You can use the instructions and codes I sent home today to sign up for a parent account. There is also information at the bottom of the sheet to sign up your child. It would help if you download this free app onto the device your child uses most often. Also, please send in this device to school on Wednesday as we'll get some practice using it. (If your child will not be bringing a device, we will provide one for him/her at school. No worries!) We will also be using devices next Sunday and Monday. I want to recommend some other great apps, as well, but please remember that they are only suggestions. (There's no need to feel any pressure to purchase them.)
Cursive Wizard You can use this with a finger or a stylus (Daiso sells them for only AED 7.)
Also, as we are now taking weekly times table tests, please feel free to print any extra copies of the fact tests your child needs by visiting this great website, which is where I got them. Thanks so much for your support. It's my hope that the class will enjoy and benefit from these terrific resources.
