"Summer Math Packet
These were sent home in hard copy today. The instructions should be clear. If not, email me [abroyles@howardschool.org]. In addition to what your child worked on this year, we included content a little beyond in case you want to go further, are working with a tutor, etc. We strongly recommend doing a little each week to keep the skills alive."
I would also add this about our thinking in generating this packet, and giving it to you.
The idea is not that you have a massive, homework assignment that ruins your summer, or causes stress and/or strife. Your math grade will not suffer at the beginning of the year, if you don't get this all done (although, you may find that the next year of math might go better if you spend some time on it over the summer). This should give you a resource to use for practice, so that skills you've worked hard to gain are not lost. It is meant to give you an easy way to keep your mind working on math. The links on this page should also provide you opportunities to have some fun while doing math. The progress chart is meant to help keep track of the work (or play) you are doing, and also show next year's teachers what you've done to keep your math active.
Happy Mathing!
