Why do we have a Math notebook and not a binder?

Mrs. K and I have decided that our math classes will keep a 
notebook and not a binder.  We believe that this will be easier 
for you to keep track of your daily work and there will be a much 
less chance of loosing papers or throwing out papers too soon.  
In our notebook, we have the Students Prayer to Mary on the front 
cover and The First 100 days of math grid on the back cover.  
Each day will be clearly marked with the date in words, numbers, 
and Roman Numerals.

How often will we get homework?

Every night! (that is Mon. - Thursday)  When we begin our Math 5-
K training, the work is spread out over the entire week and 
therefore, you may have a few problems to do on the weekend.
 Parents, 
please check to see that your student is recording the assignment 
and doing 
it completely and neatly.

What if I forget to write down the homework assignment in class?

Check this web-site, it will be posted daily.

What happens if I forget to do my homework?

Any time this happens, I will send off a quick e-mail message to 
mom or dad 
letting them know that you did not do your homework the previous 
night.  You 
will be responsible for completing the missed assignment and any 
new work 
that night!  Also, you will get a RED TICKET and loose one of 
your number game cards on Friday.

Do I need to have my tests and quizzes signed?

Yes you do!  When these are handed back, you are required to show 
them to mom 
or dad, have them sign it, and bring it back to class the next 
day.  Again, 
if you fail to do this then a quick e-mail will go home to mom or 
dad.

What happens if I forget to do my homework a few times each week?

This would be a major problem and we would have to have a meeting 
with all of 
us, that is, Mrs. McAdorey, the student, and parent, to see if we 
can figure 
out why things are not gettting done on time.

What if I am having trouble doing the math work?

I can be available to give help prior to the start of school 
(7:30-7:50) any 
morning.  Just let me know and we can arrange something.
