Some families have asked for additional resources to support their child or children at home.

I want to share with everyone Math websites to help students strengthen their math skills at home. Some of you are already using these sites, and your students are enjoying them.

1. SplashLearn: Offers engaging math games and activities for Pre-K to Grade 5. It provides personalized learning paths and interactive experiences to keep kids interested in math. ​
2. MathTV: Features thousands of tutorial videos on topics like whole numbers, fractions, decimals, and geometry making it ideal for visual learners. Great site for 4th and 5th graders.
3. Bedtime Math: This resource sends parents a daily math problem that can be solved with their child as part of a fun bedtime routine, encouraging daily math practice in a relaxed setting.
4. Multiplicaton.com Backed by data, these quizzes, games, and other tools automatically meet the student exactly where they are to prevent frustration.
5. Julia Robinson Mathematics PUZZLES Free, fun, and meaningful math for all. I can tell you from experience, your students will be challenged and absolutely LOVE these puzzles. Teachers and parents will also be challenged to😊 Give it a try!

Thank you Park Street Mathematics Coach Mrs. Worley for organizing these resources.

These resources cater to various grade levels and learning styles, helping students engage with math in an enjoyable way at home.

On behalf of the PTA, we warmly invite you to participate in our upcoming Cancer Fundraiser, a meaningful opportunity to make a difference. This month-long campaign aims to raise awareness and provide crucial support, offering hope and resources to those impacted by this disease. We are proud to announce that 100% of the proceeds from the sale of our *Panther Hope* t-shirts will be donated to the Atlanta Cancer Care Foundation.

By purchasing a t-shirt, available in both student and adult sizes, you contribute directly to the fight against cancer. Your generosity will enable our PTA, on behalf of the Park Street Panthers, to make a charitable donation to the Atlanta Cancer Care Foundation, helping to fund essential support programs for individuals and families in need.

Sincerely,

Mr. Alex Soto, Park Street Elementary Principal & Mrs. Elizabeth Powell, Park Street Elementary PTA President
