We Believe… That our students are completely capable of success. They will succeed when they complete their homework. They will be working hard this year. Kids will succeed when they take ownership of their education. They will succeed when they believe that they are here to learn. Their JOB right now is as a student. They will be confident in thinking at a higher level.

Warm Ups Beginning of class most days “Top Score” Workbook (math 7) Review of M6 & M7 material Review of previous math curriculum (5-10 mins/day)

Homework It counts toward the grade! Almost every day Should not take more than 30 minutes Practice, practice, practice… Must be complete, not almost complete Ample time in class for review of homework the next day

Completed all corrections, AND obtain a parent signature on the original test & the corrections. The retake should be taken after school within 2 weeks of receiving back the original test. Please see your child’s grading policy.

Supplies Spiral about 150 pages. Simple folder for papers. SMALLER SPIRAL for only test corrections. Simple folder for papers. Pouch/Holder for all pencils, pens, etc.

What You Can Do Stress the fact that your child is the student and needs to ask questions in class Check child’s agenda each night…each night Ask to see the completed homework (trust, but verify!) Ask Johnny why he got the answer he did on any particular problem; have him teach you Check my webpage daily for hwk updates.

What Your Child Can Do (not you, no offense.  ) Ask and come for help during class and/or Resource. Ask and come for help after school (M, W, and Th.) Make arrangements himself to make up missed assignments Ask questions in class. See the teacher about any concerns she has at any time.

Current Units of Study I’ll try to keep posted the 9-week plan at the beginning of each quarter.
