IXL.com
Students in grades K-8 have been subscribed into the online Mathematics and ELA (English Language Arts) tutorial program. Students were given their login and password so that they would be able to work on home independently.
Parents are urged to have their children practice Mathematics skills and ELA skills with this program at least 20 minutes a day since we are 6 weeks away from the New York State Exams. The IXL.com program is geared to assist students with Common Core State Standard Skills and they have been introduced to the program with the teachers and with Mr. Marcial during their scheduled computer class.
