Websites for math:

 

http://www.ixl.com/  

            This is one of the most important websites for your child. I have asked all students to place their IXL username and passwords on the front page of their agendas. They should have it memorized by now... but if they forget it is easily accessible. This site covers the standards that we are going to be covering for the entire year. This is somethat we go over in class. If they ever say they don't know what to work on... have them go to the area we are currently working on in class! Review of any areas we have already assessed on is also a good use of their time on this site. Please have them use pencil and paper when going to this site. It is not game based and really does require them to work out the problems.
