How to Stay a Step Ahead of Your Child… ***HINT: Past studies show that if students really
try on the homework, they can pass my class.
Students are expected to do homework on the day
assigned (see sample Homework log). Homework is collected on Fridays (or last day of the
week) at the beginning of class. Get your student used to staying on top of homework ON THEIR OWN, by doing spot checks (especially Thursday night). |
What to
expect… Quizzes Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday on problems
from the homework. There is a Test every Friday. Tests are based on problems from the
homework. Students may use homework
and notes to help on their test. We will review problem areas identified by a
diagnostic test, focusing most immediately on areas covered by the
standardized tests. Generally, there will be homework Monday through
Thursday. See “How to Stay a Step
Ahead…” Please encourage students to take good care of their books and cover them. Remember, if they lose the book, the fine is $55. |
