Dear Parents,
Please remember that Friday, April 23rd will be the last day to submit the =

- third week of May.
Please make sure that your student is finishing up with the worksheets. Als=
o if you see that your student is going to submit a big batch of worksheets=
, you may choose to grade the worksheets and submit as usual and the grader=
will record your student's participation. This will help the graders who a=
re receiving higher volume than usual towards the end of the program.
You can check your students' progress at the Math Superstars' display board=
outside of the library. If you have any question on the scores of your stu=
dent please contact Preeti Baranga or Sharon Deol.

Math Superstars is a math enrichment program that is in addition to the reg=
ular classroom curriculum and available free to the students of LME. This p=
rogram runs entirely by the PTA. The worksheets are corrected (confidential=
ly) by parent volunteers. The choice to participate is up to you, as the pa=
rent, and your student.
In this program you will receive a worksheet each week via email that is li=
sted in PTA registration. Please print the document and make it available f=
or your student. Encourage your student to do as many problems as he or sh=
e can. The more stars you see beside a problem, the higher the level of dif=
ficulty. The process of reading, understanding and approaching the problems=
is a valuable step in solving many types of problems. Try to let your stud=
ent do the problems independently, but it is fine to help by suggesting str=
ategies.
We would encourage you to stay current with the current week's worksheet. T=
his helps the graders, who are the parent volunteers to grade same week/set=
of worksheets and not going back and forth on different set of worksheets.=
Also please don't have a big backlog of worksheets by working on them regu=
larly. However this should not prevent your student from submitting workshe=
ets from past weeks. If your student is running behind please submit them a=
long with current week's worksheets.
Please use the link below and user name and password to login and choose th=
e Grade and week for your student to access the worksheets.
