There will be nightly homework due the next day unless stated otherwise. Homework is an important part to learning mathematics, as it gives you an opportunity to practice the skills and apply your learning. Not doing your homework is NOT an option! Homework is graded on effort, meaning all problems were attempted, work shown and corrections made.
You are welcome to ask questions about anything that was difficult or confusing after you have given it an honest try. This means looking it up if you were not sure where to start. Try the online textbook, the Useful Links page on this site, or homework help. It is your job to ask questions and correct when a mistake is made. Remember, mistakes are proof you are trying. They also help you learn, so know mistakes happen - in fact in this classroom they are welcome!
