Math

Our district uses the Everyday Math program in the elementary grades. For more information about this program, please visit http://everydaymath.uchicago.edu/parents/

Although our district does not officially use the "Bridges" math program, I use some of its resources and find its parent resources/materials very valuable: http://www.mathlearningcenter.org/resources/materials/parents/parents1
