Hi Nana and Pop-pop,
I have some exciting news to share with you. I am doing a Read-A-Thon at my school, P.S. 107! A Read-A-Thon is a fun event where I read as many books as I can over a few weeks and raise money for my school.
Will you please support me and make a donation? Your donation will make a big difference and encourage me to read more books.
Click this button to make a donation and cheer me on:
Thank you so much for your support.
Love,
Hazel

Auto-Generated, Online Math Games
In Math-A-Thons, students answer as many math problems as they can over a few weeks. Some schools choose to print handouts for the students to work on at home or in school, but we think Math-A-Thons don't have to be homework and can be fun! With ForOurSchool.org, students solve simple, but grade-appropriate math games online that follow the common core math curriculum and get instant feedback. Students get excited as they watch their number of games solved counter tick upwards and inch closer to their goal.
Many schools choose to hold Math-A-Thons over the summer because by that point, students will have learned all the curriculum and the Math-A-Thon can be a fun and competitive way to review it. This can also help to combat the dreaded "summer slide"!
