Math Syllabus
MATH OUR WAY!
Students of mine will quickly learn that I believe that anything is possible as long as you believe it is possible! There is no room for "I can't" in my classroom. My goal is for each and every child to leave my classroom believing that they can do anything to which they set their mind. I will motivate them to give their best each and every day!
Math Expectations: My first expectation is for you to enjoy your experiences in Math this year! I work very hard to make sure that happens! My promise to you is that I will work hard to make sure you enjoy math this year! What do I need from you, you ask? Here are a few things that I need you to do:
1) Come to my classroom everyday with your most positive attitude!
2) Make an effort, not an excuse!
3) Treat everyone in the room with respect!
**REQUIRED MATERIALS FOR MATH CLASS - These must be brought to class everyday unless told otherwise**
My class will be using a new Curriculum this year called Desmos Math. It is a very interactive math curriculum that allows students to work together to learn and solve math problems together. I will facilitate their learning each day with lessons and practice. I do require my students to complete the Desmos lessons and practice in class where we can all work together. They should not have much homework unless they are not using class time wisely.
Math Expectations:
1) Students only have math practice at home if they do not complete the work in class.
2) Almost all of our math work will be completed on the iPad.
3) Practice is due at the beginning of the class period.
4) You must show all of your work for every problem.
*** Remember - Make an effort, not an excuse! Please complete your daily math steps, it will help, I promise!
Absence Expectations:
1) Use your Google Classroom to keep up with what you should work on.
2) Students are responsible for checking their Google Classroom to see if there are any other activities they may have missed during their absence.
