Dear Families,
To the right, you will find a summary of the current mathematics your student(s) is learning.
Today’s math is designed to help your child compete and thrive in a rapidly changing world—academically, professionally, financially and socially. Math education should prepare your child for many things including making smart, informed decisions in every area of life.
To do this, today’s math education may look different than it did when you were a child. That’s because the world is different. Math—and the mental problem-solving skills it instills—is critical. Today’s math is meant to prepare students to manage and enrich their lives.
The idea behind today’s math is not just to do it, but also to understand how and why we do it. Students do not just learn numbers, equations, angles and theorems, but also put in context why these concepts matter in life.
As always, your best source for answering questions and getting assistance is your student's teacher.
In Partnership,
Hmong International Academy
