How do you study for math?

The best way to study for math is to read over classnotes and to review 
homework problems. There will usually be extra problems in the math textbook 
to try. Make corrections on any old quizzes and ask questions!

Can students use a calculator?

Some homework problems in the book may ask for a calculator. Most topics 
that involve whole numbers or decimal will be done without a calculator. 
Later in the year when doing statistics, percents, and geometry with area 
and perimeter calculators will be used more often.
