PreCalculus Course Updates
9/5/2017
Welcome Students!
Welcome to class. Be sure to download and print out the syllabus for you schedule. Assignments are due every Wednesday at Midnight. Please work daily. Late penalties accrue for 3 school days at a rate of 10% per school day. Please call, text, or email when you have questions!
Turning in assignments
Be sure to check out scanning apps like CamScanner or TinyScanner. These apps allow you to convert pictures from your phone into pdf files. Brightspace accepts pdf files nicely. You will normally only be allowed to submit 1 file per assignment. You cannot upload several pictures. You must merge your pictures into one document.
Office Hours
Take advantage of Precalculus group office hours on Mondays at 8:00 PM. This week only, we will meet on Wednesday at 9 PM to make up for Labor Day. If you can't attend the live session, please email me questions and then view the recording. You may also find historical recordings to be helpful. These can be found in the "links" widget in BrightSpace.
Progress Reports
This week's progress report grade reflects all work turned in by 9/3/2017. Late work will not be reflected in the grade you see. Progress reports are issued every other week. If your child's grade drops below a 70, you will receive additional notification.
Check User Links for Help
Be sure to check out the user links widget in the Brightspace home page. This widget houses links to the weekly class chat recordings as well as additional help videos for certain assignments. If you are on a shortened session, check out the historical recordings for help on topics and assignments!
