Updates From the Math Office
- Materials for Grades 3 - 5: The Office of Mathematics will provide the enVision Math 2.0 student editions for one more school year (17 - 18). These are being provided at no cost to the schools. Additional information will be shared in an upcoming Weekly Bulletin.
- DreamBox Summer Use: DreamBox Learning will be available for students throughout the summer. Using DreamBox is a way for students to not only maintain crucial mathematics skills but to receive enrichment as well as they are away from school during the summer months. Students should continue to access their Dreambox account through BCPS One throughout the summer. They should log into the BCPS One portal and access the digital content section. They will then click the DreamBox icon to enter their account. There will be a short period of time the week of July 30 - August 6 when students will be unable to access DreamBox because BCPS One will receive maintenance in preparation for the upcoming school year.
- Parents can set up accounts for DreamBox through their students DreamBox dashboard. With this parent account, they can monitor your child's progress. It is important to remember that DreamBox is an independent activity and therefore students should not receive coaching about how to solve the problems. Students can use the help (question mark) and hint (lightbulb) features on the screen to get assistance.
