Welcome to the classroom blog of room 307. How exciting to be able to share classroom happenings with my students and their families! It's here you will find videos, class updates, projects the students have created and many other things. I hope that you are able to check in from time to time to be kept up to date with what we are learning in class. I look forward to keeping you more informed and having a place for my classes to share their wonderful work.

Whoo Hoo!! Think Through Math and Sumdog!!

Hi Kids,


Show your family Think Through Math and let them see your avatar:)

Hi Parents,

I wanted to share a great math resource with you. It's called Think Through Math and students can work on concepts at home, online! The best part about the program is that I get progress reports on how well students are doing and which skills have been mastered. I've heard a lot of parents saying they wished there was something that their child could work on from home and here it is! 


All of the kids were able to log in today to get their initial placement.  The program is tailored just to your child and their needs; they work at their pace. They can also get live help from a teacher if they are stuck.  They love the fact they can  build their own avatar with the points they earn. They were having fun competing with their friends today.  What I love about it is, that no matter what the level of the student, they can compete or work together and no one knows who is where.   To log in they can search TTM in the search bar and find it that way, or they can go directly to the site which is http://lms.thinkthroughmath.com They all know their username and password, but in case they forget:

Username: 6 digit school id # (lunch number) and last name   example: 123456baril
Password: 8 digit birthday   example:  02012004

I will also be giving students their Sumdog.com logins this week or the first part of next. Several of the kids are familiar with Sumdog.  They will be able to keep their same login info from last year if they have one. This sight is more game like and they have been really wanting to use it this year.

Have FUN kids!  Practice those facts!!
