Mathletics Quarterly Requirements

It is expected for students to earn a minimum of 3 certificates per quarter.  To earn a certificate, one needs to earn 1000 points within a week (Monday thru Sunday).  Students are also expected to earn a minimum of 15 NEW Gold Medals (or Mastered Skills) per quarter as well.  Students will track their own progress every quarter and “Level Up” on our Mathletics wall.  When selecting skills to work on or practice, students can consider their lowest RIT area from the NWEA MAP test and pick skills to practice in that area.

1st Quarter:  August 10 to September 27, 2015
2nd Quarter:  September 28 to December 13, 2015
