Math 8


Assignment cards are provided every unit. Every problem must be tried and appropriate work must be shown to earn all homework points. Late assignments must be turned in before the unit test for any credit.

All students have been provided an eBook for at home (or wherever) use.  There are many features included in the book that will help our students learn.  There is tutoring, homework help, selected answers, flash cards for vocabulary, etc.  This means if students need help or miss a day of class or school, they may still be prepared for class by following along with the lesson in the eBook, trying the problems, and bringing questions to school!  This is a great supplement to our text! Of course this does not replace staying for help before and/or after school as neededed.
