ATTENTION JAGUAR PARENTS: This is just a “gentle reminder” as we continue to navigate through this academic year, we want to highlight the importance of fidelity in using our Math and Reading software programs at home. (ST Math, Zearn Math, and Amplfy Reading)
These software programs are valuable tools that enhance your child’s math and reading understanding through interactive and engaging activities. To ensure the maximum benefit from these programs, we kindly request that you encourage your child to follow these guidelines while using the programs at home:
a) Consistent Use
b) Independent Exploration
c) Problem Solving
d) Parental Involvement: While independent exploration is encouraged, we also appreciate your occasional involvement. Discuss your child’s progress, celebrate achievements, and address any challenges they may be facing.
By adhering to these guidelines, you contribute significantly to the effectiveness of the online programs (ST Math, Zearn & Amplify), in supporting your child’s academic growth. We are committed to providing the best educational experience for your student and your partnership in maintaining fidelity with the online programs at home is invaluable.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION AND DEDICATION TO YOUR CHILD’S EDUCATION AND PARTNERSHIP WITH NTXCA!!!!
Gooooooooo Jaguars !!!!!!!!!!!
