Winter Math






December 2022

Dear Parents and Guardians,


Tolland Public Schools is excited to provide an opportunity for your child to participate in the Greg Tang New Year’s Challenge from December 8, 2022  to January 9, 2023. The Greg Tang New Year’s Challenge is an engaging math experience that can support your child’s continued math learning over winter break. Students can practice math concepts and have fun!


The Greg Tang New Year’s Challenge game board can be completed over winter break, using online games, puzzle packs, and online poem books at Gregtang.com. You are being provided with a game board and a puzzle pack for your child’s appropriate grade level. This challenge is meant to be enjoyable. If you find your student struggling, please provide assistance or encourage your child to attempt a lower grade level. Students can also move to a harder level of the game to make things more challenging by going to https://tangmath.com/newyears. In addition to the provided resources, all grade-level resources are provided digitally from the Greg Tang site. You do not need to purchase anything. 


This is an optional activity. Students who complete the challenge can earn a certificate and a prize! 


After your child completes the activity, sign the game board and send it back to school by January 9, 2022. Students should turn in the signed sheet to their teacher or the building math intervention teachers. 


Thank you so much for your support! Happy Holidays!
