What else can you do as a parent?

• Talk with your child!– Ask about the specific mathematics they are learning in the classroom and lab.

• Give me an example of what you did today.• Did anyone solve it in a different way from you?• I understand you don’t want to write in math class, but I have to write things all the

time in my job/business/organization/life. We don’t get to separate these things in life.

– Talk with teachers about the quality of the work your student is completing.• Celebrate hard work!

– It’s not just about making an A – celebrate perseverance and effort!– Be aware of the progress your student is making and celebrate with them.– Remind them they can get better in math with practice – just like we get better

at anything else with practice!• Promote the importance of understanding math – not just doing it!
