Spring 2010 Calendar

 

Disclaimer:  This calendar is constantly being updated.  Make sure and check the calendar before every class period for adjustments and assignment changes. 

 

Homework assignments are assigned on the calendar corresponding to the class period the section was covered.  You should complete your homework in a timely manner.  Which means, have the assigned sections done by the NEXT class period after they were assigned. 

 

Write your homework in a separate notebook.  For each problem assigned, you need to 1) rewrite the problem, 2) show all work , and 3) circle your answer.  You do not need to rewrite word problems in your notebook...but, it might help.

 

You are responsible for completion of all the assigned problems.  These problems represent the minimum homework requirements for the in-class homework quizzes.  Remember you are preparing for a test with each homework problem that you complete.  Practice makes perfect.

 

Bring your homework notebook to class everyday!  You will use your notebooks when answering questions and during in-class homework quizzes!
