Math Reminders:
-Students should write on their math calendar during math class every day; they should write each homework assignment, when things are due in Schoology and the dates of upcoming assessments.
-It is important for students to practice their newly learned math skills by completing the homework assignments. When they spend time thinking about these concepts, it boosts their learning. Effort impacts growth/learning!
-If students do not complete the homework the day it is assigned, they should catch up later in the week, so they will have what they need to complete the Skill Checks in Schoology.
-Morning Math Sessions are held every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Students have an orange hall pass that will allow them to come up at 7:25. Students should come in early to catch up on makeup work if they are absent, check their work, work on their assignments, to complete late work or to make corrections to raise their grade.
