How to help at home
Do one set, then talk
After a set, look at the ones they missed together. Ask how they got their answer before saying what the right one is.
Little and often
A short set a few times a week does more than a long session the week before.
Use real life
Prices at the store, recipes, distances and times on a trip: grade-level math is everywhere.
Keep it calm
The test checks how the year went. A good night’s sleep helps more than cramming.
For the real test’s screens and tools, try the state’s official practice.
