ALEKS Math
2015.2016 Elementary Information
We're Going Hollywood!
Our classroom theme this year is 'Hollywood'! We are going to be celebrating our ALEKS Math STARS all year long!
First Day
I can't believe it! We will be starting school next week! Where has the time gone? It's been a VERY busy summer, but we all deserved a break! I hope all of my students enjoyed their summer as much as I did (although, much of mine was/is spent doing a DIY kitchen remodel and wasn't/isn't always fun)!
We will have a very fun and busy first day again this year! After going over all of the rules and procedures, we will be doing a math project for display in our classroom.

What to bring?
- Come to class with a 'Stage Name'
- Wear a Smile, and bring lots of energy!
- Bring last year's binder and notes (if you still have them)
- A binder (new if you prefer, but students can use their binder from last year)
- loose-leaf paper (reinforced is best for our needs, but any will do)
- 3-ring folder (to go inside the binder)
- 1 box of kleenex (specifically for the ALEKS classroom)
I have pencils, scratch paper (graph paper, plain paper, lined paper), glue sticks, dry erase markers, and all of the other items we will need for the year.
Don't forget to work on your Math Facts before school starts!
*New ALEKS Math Interface
I'm so excited that ALEKS has a created a new and BETTER interface that will be even more useful for our students! We will go over the new interface in depth during the first week of classes. I am also in the process of preparing a video for students and parents that will explain this new interface. The video will be coming via email after school begins. Regular weekly requirements will be included in the video as well.
