Please send paper and pencils with your child to class. Each student is required to have a 3-ring notebook to keep all assignments, quizzes, reviews and projects in. Please look at your child's notebook every week to see the progress that is being made. Reviewing the material with them each week will keep them ready for the Assessment test in the Spring. Thanks for your help.
Be a partner with your child's teacher. When you need to speak to him or her in reference to a specific issue with your child, do it privately, not in front of your child. Make a point never to criticize your child's teacher in front of your child.
Parents, expect a worksheet each week on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. We use the textbook during class and the students create a notesheet to take home to help them with the practice worksheet.
Expect a practice worksheet every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday that your child will be working on. We use the textbooks during class and they create a notesheet to take home when they tackle the practice problems.
