Dear Parent,
​
I will be implementing a web-based curriculum called MobyMax as a standing homework assignment for Social Studies. MobyMax is tailored to the concepts and standards we will be learning in the classroom, and I think you will be very impressed by how fast your child will excel while using Moby.
​
Students should work on the assigned lessons for an average of 10 minutes per day. This can be done literally for 10 minutes Monday through Friday, or can be done for two days at 25 minutes each, or one day for all 50 minutes, etc. The idea is so that it fits into your busy weekly schedule and homework from other classes.
​
Besides social studies, MobyMax offers lessons and resources in many other subjects. Students are able to access these other subjects as they please, but ONLY Social Studies work will count towards the homework average.
​
I hope you and your child find the lessons to be fun and stimulating. Students, take your time and work carefully! If you do not pass the assignments with at least 75%, the lesson will be repeated. Your goal is to move through the lessons and keep on course!
​
Your child can access Moby from your home computer, , tablet, ipad, and many other devices at any time. If you currently do not have access to the Internet, visit your local library and they will help you to sign in and complete the assignments there.
