Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer extra credit?

No, I do not offer extra credit to my students but I do give a variety of assignments that are designed to help raise students’ grades.  If students are completing all of the assignments to the best of their ability, they should not need extra credit.  I also allow students to redo certain assignments to improve their grades.  They should see me if they would like to take advantage of this opportunity.

How can my child raise their grade?

Make sure your student does their homework every night and shows their work or thinking on every problem.  They should also spend a good amount of time studying for each chapter test (See question below).  Check your child’s grade regularly.  Make sure that they do not have any zeroes or missing assignments.  They can also redo certain assignments to help improve their overall score.

How can my child study for the tests?

The are multiple resources to help prepare for the tests.  They include reviewing the chapter homework, reviewing the sections in the workbook, and try practice problems in Khan academy.  There are also additional resources in the caregiver hub.  https://amplify.com/caregiver-hub/amplify-desmos-math
