Exponents Project:
Exponents Test:
Please be on the look out for these tests to come home on Monday. If your student did not master the material on the test, a reassessment plan will be attached. The plan will need to be signed by you and your child, and returned to me on Tuesday. Students participating in the reassessment will need to successfully complete the reassessment assignment before taking the test again. Please be aware that there are two parts of the assignment. One is in the book, the other is attached to the reassessment plan.
Saturday School
At Risk Students:
To improve grades:
Reassess quizzes
Reassess tests
Complete missing assignments
Make use of a tutor
Attend help sessions
Khan Academy
Study vocabulary
** The biggest problem I see on tests/quizzes is that students have not memorized vocabulary/formulas/rules. It is essential in 8th grade math that they memorize these things to be successful.
