This year is such an exciting year for math because we finally step out from the years of calculations you've been doing and apply what you know to new forms of math.
We look at all the different types of math and the ways you can look at and apply numbers. We will continue to strengthen your calculation skills but also learn about how to use those skills to analyze and apply numbers in a new context.
After school extra help days will be on Mondays and Thursdays or as needed. Please check the Assignments page for schedule changes and availability.
Parents, if you would like to email me, please contact me through ParentSquare.
Thank you!

3 areas of grading:
50% Assessments: Tests, Quizzes, and Projects - Assessments are varied so students can show what they know in different ways. All individually graded assessments can be found in Google Classroom and Aspen.
40% Daily Work: Daily classwork, binder checks, homework, class activities, exit tickets, and overall work production in and sometimes outside of class. All individually graded assignments can be found on Google Classroom.
10% Effort & Participation: Mid-Term teacher score based on progress and participation in class and End-of-Term score based on a self-assessment.
We teach the Massachusetts state standards and utilize a lot of different resources to do so. This includes, but is not limited to, project based learning strategies, UDL, self-guided interactions, and our HMH Into Math Curriculum and Resources. More information about our curriculum can be found on your child's HMH Ed platform in Family Corner.
