IXL Summer Learning Rules
A Note to Families:
Don’t let your child’s mathematical skills diminish over the summer. They’ve worked too hard during the school year and will benefit from a routine to help them stay sharp. We want to thank YOU for the important role you play in helping your child learn and grow over the summer months.
We are challenging every student to an IXL Summer Learning Challenge! Logging in to IXL is easy. The students all have a username and password. Local libraries have computers available for any families without internet access this summer. If your family does not have access to the internet, a summer math packet is available in the MS office. Your child needs to “X” off and date each box as it’s completed. Please write your initials in the squares too. Students will be tested on their MATH fluencies the first full day of school in September (see link below).
Have a GREAT summer,
MS Math Department
