Foundations & Calculus Student - Parent Letter

March 2008

Mustang High School, Elayne Bowman, Instructor

 

Midterms are here! 

Midterm exams are this week. Hours 1, 3, & 5 will test on Thursday and hours 2, 4, & 6 will test on Friday. That takes us up to Spring Break March 17-21.

AP CALCULUS EXAM IS MAY 7! The AP Calculus students have finished covering the topics for the exam and have begun their review process to prepare for the exam.

Regular Calculus students are not far behind and will hopefully get to pursue some of the more advanced topics that the AP class covers.

Foundations students will be doing more practice College Algebra exams during the final nine weeks and continue to prepare for college placement exams.

ACT

Seniors have one last chance to get their ACT score up before applying to the college or university of their choice. The ACT exams will be given on the following dates: Apr. 12 and June 14. I will give ACT Math review sessions before the April exam on Thursday, April 10 from 3:30 to 6:00 p.m. Cost for the review session is $25 and includes pizza and pop.

Homework:

    Homework continues to be a major portion of our grades in both Foundations and Calculus.  We’ll work and have daily assignments through the end of the school year. Homework accounts for roughly 33% of grades for both classes.  Not doing the homework hurts twice – once for the zero it receives and then again for not being prepared for exams. Make use of before and after school help. I am in my room by 8:05 each day and stay as needed on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons

Bonus Opportunity:

Bring the receipt for this letter back signed by 3/14 to receive 5 points bonus for this month. (Receipt was sent home with actual copy of the letter. If your student didn’t get one to you, you’re welcome to just write on a piece of paper that you read this and send it to school with your student.)
