Parent University: Supporting Student Achievement in Math

As part of the AEA Parent University Series, middle school teachers presented a February 5 parent workshop on supporting student achievement in math.  The AEACMS School Site Council has adopted math support as one of its focuses for the current school year.

Although the weather did not cooperate with our plans and clearly impacted attendance, the handful of parents who participated enjoyed sessions on internet math resources, step-by-step instructions for checking student grades on MyGradebook, an introduction to algebraic thinking, and a hands-on activity creating flash cards to practice math facts.
