I am so excited to introduce the Cedars’ Corner: a blog to let you know what your mathematician is studying in class, work-at –home assignments and due dates and additional ways to support a love of math at home.
Our blog will be updated weekly with information about assignments and snapshots of our class time together. Come for the pictures and stay for the information!
WORK AT HOME: Watch for a bright orange, large envelope titled, “Mathematician ___________________’s Work at Home.” This will contain home connections (additional practice or extensions of class content), unfinished class work and/or important correspondence sent home. All work sent in this envelope should come back to class by the included “return by” date (on the top of the assignment).
I realize and support the fact that each family views and values homework differently and has schedules that accommodate various formats of “homework.”
The Home Connections give families opportunity to see and share in the math that their child is doing in class. And because the work sent home often includes games, it is an opportunity to play together.
Sometimes a student just needs additional time to complete an assignment. I will make every effort to provide that time during class. We are only together 4 days a week so work occasionally must be completed at home. If this happens, I will be sure to let you know by email too that class work is coming home.
