ST Math with Jiji

Dear Families,

I want to share a wonderful math learning opportunity with you. I have established a free semester long ST Math trial for our class.

ST Math is a visual math program that takes language out of the mix to truly support visual math learning. Students will develop mental math and personal references to support their math skills. You can visit ST Math to learn more at http://www.mindresearch.net/cont/programs/prog_iis.php.

We began ST Math this week and it was a huge success. Many students asked for instructions on how to try this at home and SACC. All your student needs to do are the following steps:
- Go to web.stmath.com/entrance on any computer with Internet access.
- Click on "Allow local data storage."
- Click on the small "Allow" button that appears on the small gray box.
- Click on Jiji (the penguin).
- Enter their password.
