We recommend letting parents know about the challenge and other [math resources for parents](https://www.stmath.com/parent-math-resources) that are available to engage the whole family in math over the break! ## ST Math Spring Break Challenge Ask your students to mark their progress every time they use ST Math over break and to complete one of the listed projects. These projects will help your students make deeper connections in math by including their math vocabulary, problem solving and storytelling skills. Not only are these fun activities, but they are great informal assessments. Encourage your students to shoot for an individual goal. For many students, a great goal is using ST Math for 30 minutes three times a week , or you can [create custom goals](http://blog.mindresearch.org/blog/classroom-goal-setting-for-intrinsic-motivation-and-deeper-learning) with your students. Having a goal increases intrinsic motivation to complete the challenge.

Be sure to share your success and learning on social media ([Twitter](https://twitter.com/jijimath) or [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/JiJiMath/)) and JiJi will respond with congratulations! Have a great break! ![Twana Young](https://2024.mindresearch.org/hubfs/Twana-headshot.jpg) ### About the Author Twana is Vice President of Curriculum and Instruction at MIND Research Institute.
