VPA Class Information small medium large Information for Vince Miller’s 6th VPA Math Classes at Classen School of Advanced Studies (2008-2009) Class meets in Room A106. Textbook is McDougal Littell Middle School Math: Course 1. Graph paper is to be used for all homework and classwork unless otherwise specified. The graph paper should be 8½" x 11" and pre-punched to fit in a 3-ring binder. Students should come to class with at least two (2) black-lead pencils (sharpened by the time the bell rings). A pencil eraser will likely be handy. Math work done in ink will not be accepted. Students should, however, have 2 red ink pens (or pencils) available for occasional grading of work. A straight-edge (ruler) will be needed (measurements should be in both metric and English units), as will a protractor. Calculators are not needed for this class. A math notebook is required; it should be a 3-ring binder, with dividers and tabs. Tabs should be labeled as Benchmark Tests, Class Notes, Handouts, Homework, Quizzes, Vocabulary,and Warm-ups. It is strongly suggested the 3-ring binder be a 2”, “D” ring binder. Homework will almost always be assigned. My grading policy and scale are as follows: Quizzes/Tests 80% A = 90% to 100% Homework 10% B = 80% to 89% Notebook 10% C = 70% to 79% D = 60% to 69% F = 0% to 59% If your student needs additional math help, I am usually at school until at least 3:30 p.m. Tutoring (free) is also available from juniors and seniors who are members of Mu Alpha Theta (a national mathematics honor organization whose members have at least a “B” average in mathematics). Mu Alpha Theta tutoring will begin in September and will meet after school (days to be determined) in Room A308 until 3:30 p.m. If you have any concerns, please call Classen (556-5070) and leave a message for me, or e-mail me at vincemmiller@hotmail.com (Note the "m" before "miller" in the address.).
