August is already here, and many of you are gearing up for the new school year. I have a few tips for using the Nicole the Math Lady website that will help ensure a smooth and successful start.
Dust off your login credentials and make sure you can access your Parent Account by trying to log in. If you’ve forgotten your password, simply click on “Lost Your Password?” and follow the steps to reset it. If you do not receive the reset email within a few minutes, please contact us at info@nicolethemathlady.
Confirm that your NTML plan is still active. Go here to check on your plan and renew if needed. If you use a Purchase Order, make sure to submit to your school early because the school’s process can get delayed at this time of year.
Be sure you have assigned the correct book for your student and also configured their accounts correctly. Go here to get that done.
Write down each Student Username and Password on the inside cover of their math book. You can find your student’s username on the “Manage Students” tab of your Parent Account. And you can change their passwords here.
Round up those math textbooks, spiral notebooks and pencils. For something extra fun, but still practical, try eraseable colored pencils or gel pens!
Make sure your devices are ready to go and your browser is up to date. Bookmark the login page, check your internet connection, and test those usernames and passwords one more time.
If you have never used Online Grading, you should check it out. We’ve heard from moms that it’s a game-changer as far as saving them time. If you would like to try it out for free, email info@nicolethemathlady and let us know.
If you or your kids use the incorrect login information too many times, the system will lock out your IP address which means nobody in your home will be able to access the site. The best way to avoid this is to check your usernames/passwords in advance and remind your kiddos to type very carefully. But, if you do get locked out, please be patient. The system will unlock you in an hour.
If you have not yet joined our Facebook group, please do! It’s a great place to ask questions about our program and also get help on tricky math problems. You can do that here.
While there may be plenty to do to get the school year rolling, it’s important to appreciate the incredible work we get to do as educators. It’s truly amazing. I’m wishing you a fantastic year of magical ahas and “I get it now” moments with your student.
We’re so excited to kick off another amazing year of math adventures with you and your brilliant kiddos. If you have any questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help!
