Dear parents and students,
A few important notes:
❖ For the GoMath lesson to be completed, your child must answer all the
questions in both personal math trainers (orange and red) for it to submit.
Once they are done with the red personal math trainer, they must click the
yellow arrow to completely finish and then click “turn it in” to submit.
❖ Please have your child complete the IXL lessons to the best of their abilities.
After 30 minutes of uninterrupted focus on the lesson, your child may stop if
they have not mastered it.
❖ We are MORE than happy to answer questions or address concerns between
the hours of 8:00am and 3:00pm. Please be understanding that we have
families of our own, and if you send questions outside of these hours, we will
address them the following day.
❖ We are thankful for all your support and all your hard work in bringing these
virtual lessons to fruition at home.
Please give your children a BIG hug from us, and let them know how much we
miss them!
