Reminder-Elementary Math Workshop Scheduled for Wednesday, March 25th

On Wednesday, March 25th, from 6 – 8:00 p.m. the math specialists from the three elementary schools will be running a workshop for any Luce, JFK or Hansen parents/guardians of children in grades one and two entitled, “The Strategies Behind the Mathematics...How to Help Kids with Homework.”  This workshop for parents is being conducted in response to questions raised at the most recent Massachusetts frameworks overview  night as well as questions the teachers receive from parents interested in supporting their children with math at home.

Please join math specialists Kerri Falzone, Maryanna Biedermann and Susan Brass in the Hansen cafeteria on Wednesday, March 25th from 6 – 8:00 p.m.  This will be a “hands-on” workshop for parents, and it is our goal that you walk away with strategies to use in supporting your first and second grade children.  The philosophy and policy regarding curriculum will not be a topic at this hands-on workshop. Babysitting services will be provided at Hansen.

P.S.  If you are the parent of a third grade student and would like to participate to better understand the foundational skills your child is building upon, please feel free to attend.
