SIP Day
During our SIP day last week, our staff participated in various professional development sessions. Our general education teachers participated in Mathematical Problem Based Learning sessions, IXL, and Rocket Math sessions. Our special education teachers attended literacy intervention training. In addition, our paraprofessional received communication training from our speech and language pathologists.
This year, to help support our district and school math goal. Our students will have access to IXL Math. IXL Math provides digital learning opportunities for students.
Rocket Math
Students learn using printable worksheets and verbal partner practice, or through an Online Game with programmed feedback. Both methods only take a few minutes a day and can greatly increase your child’s success with math.
