Parents

The Research Project Calculator is a project funded jointly by Minitex and MnLINK to develop Cool Tools for Minnesota secondary school students and their teachers. It is based on the original Assignment Calculator from the University of Minnesota Libraries. This webpage will help you plan out big projects for this year. All you have to do is enter the start and end dates, and the program will tell you what to do each week so your project is finished on time!

The site asks for a name, class, and email. These are not required to use the calculator, but if you choose to enter the data, the site will send you an email reminder each week to complete the step for that week. Very handy!

The site also gives great information for each step that will help students complete the task for that week.

We will be referring to this site during the year for some of our larger projects. Sit down with your child and this website to develop a plan of action for big assignments this year.

Welcome back parents! We have many exciting things planned for this year, and we always depend on our parents to make our events a success. Check with this site for news and opportunities to help with our middle school projects.
