Happy MLK Day!  I hope you all enjoyed the long weekend and are ready to jump back in for the rest of this trimester!

There are some changes to our math curriculum to let you know about.  This year the middle school at HES has been using EngageNY as our math curriculum.  We will now be using Eureka Math, which is an enhanced version of EngageNY Math.  Parents, you may also use Eureka Math Help as a resource to help support your child with math homework.  The USDOE and many states have recognized Eureka Math as a comprehensive curriculum with full alignment with the Common Core State Standards.

You may also click on the tab to the right to learn more about specific common core math standards.

I am excited to be a part of the middle school math program at HES!   Please let me know your thoughts, concerns, or questions about our program by contacting me at bziegler@wsesu.net.

PLEASE REMEMBER YOUR WEEKLY IXL PRACTICE!  Although IXL is considered part of your formative classwork grade, it is excellent practice of computation skills linked to class discussions.

Math on!
