Dear
Parent(s),
The best way to study math is to work problems. Reading
Organizational skills are
necessary for learning mathematics. Organization begins with keeping an
up-to-date structured notebook. It continues with learning to show all work in
a neat and organized manner, I will encourage the use of these strategies
during our class.
Extra help
is available before school Tuesday through Thursday and after school by
appointment. Please encourage your child to attempt all
homework problems and to ask for help when needed. It is crucial to ask for
help immediately because minor confusion and misunderstandings that are left
uncorrected become bigger problems that are more difficult to correct.
When
students are out of class for any reason- absent, field trips, ISS, etc. they
are to go to my website to check the assignment for the day. My website is: http://milani-algebra2.blogspot.com/ . This
class is too rigorous for any student to get behind; therefore I would
appreciate your involvement in this matter.
Please
take the time to read this course syllabus completely and sign the form below.
This is to acknowledge that as a parent you have read and understood the
syllabus and the procedures therein. I’ve also asked for contact information so
that I can be in touch with you if needed. If you have further questions or concerns
about your child’s progress, please email me at Angela.Milani@cobbk12.org. It is very important that I have an up-to-date
e-mail address with which I can maintain contact with you regularly. Please
be sure to get your Synergy Code so you can view your child’s grades and
attendance on-line. Your child has a
code also.
Thank
you for your time; I look forward to possibly meeting each of you and to an
exciting semester!
