Hathaway Community, on behalf of the Hathaway staff we would like to share our collective gratitude for your constant support and understanding throughout this very challenging school year. In August I shared that Hathaway has historically been a vibrant collection of educators and lifelong learners who are dedicated to moving our school and community forward in positive directions. The Hathaway community, students, teachers and staff did an amazing job in spite of all of the challenges we faced! Congratulations to all of our students as they promote to the next grade level! It has been truly amazing to have everyone back safety in school with us! We could not have made it through the year without the incredible support of parents, guardians and families! Well done everyone!

Lets all stay safe and well over summer vacation! We'll see you all in August!

Thank you again to ALL of the Hathaway Community for helping us make it through 2021-2022!

Read Math Picture Books: A great way to emphasize reading skills, as well as, math skills is to engage students with a math picture book. There are a lot of picture books available that are skill-based and fun to read at the same time.

Play Math Games: From card and dice games to board games to online math games, games provide a variety of methods for reviewing grade-level content and skills. You can find games at educational resource stores or on the web. While board games are usually more skill-based and fun for kids, you can do a lot with simple cards, dice, and/or dominoes. Online math games can be a bit more complicated, but children love them and keep them engaged for hours.

Practice Math Facts: The summer provides a great opportunity for children to become more proficient with math facts. Practice adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing when you are out and about. Flashcard games are great for road trips and travel. You can also find math fact practice via web games.

Explore Math in the Real-World: Recognizing math in the real world is an excellent way to reinforce math skills and help make real-world connections at the same time. Cooking a meal together can be a great lesson all in itself! Students can also help plan family trips, create a budget for activities like going to the movie theatre, or compare prices at the grocery store.

Download Math Apps for Cell Phones/Tablets: If your children have access to tablets or other mobile devices at home, keeping them engaged with math apps is easy. Because handheld devices are transportable, using math apps gives kids something to do when traveling, visiting grandparents, or simply riding in the car while adult family members are running errands– they provide instant opportunities for engagement. A quick Google search will generate a list of apps covering a wide range of skills.
