Star Constellations Homework Reminder!
Classroom teachers, please try to collect as many of the student "Stars" as you can by Thursday 10/4! Our Star Constellations Team will be collecting them and sorting them during our work session on Friday. Extra blank copies will be located in the mailroom if any of your students lose theirs.

Eureka Math Resource: Embarc Online
Embarc Online is a great resource to bookmark for those teaching Eureka Math. The site is organized by grade level and provides all digital resources for each module. Parent letters, videos, exit tickets and even lesson slideshows are available. A bonus for K-2 teachers is the Promethean Flipchart that you can use when teaching each lesson.
Here are the direct links to each grade level pages.
