Update: Week 5

Hello to everyone following my newsletter,

Algebra 1 - This week we are having our Chapter 1 exam, which will consist of at least 50 questions that are multiple choice, t/f, and matching. We are making our unit test like this to get our students ready for the MME/ACT math exam and our Algebra 1 Midterm and Final Exam. Tutoring is up and running and the schedule is as follows:

PM (2:45 -3:15 pm)
Tuesday - Mrs. Samouelian's Room (D-7)
Thursday - Mr. Marzec's Room (C-1)

AM (7:00 - 7:30 am)
Wednesday - Mrs. Samouelian's Room (D-7)
Friday - Mr. Dehaan / Mrs. Balogh's Room (B - 4)

Students that need extra help with reviewing should attend these tutoring sessions. I will get the CH 1 exam graded over the weekend and allow the students to retake the exam if they come to at least 2 sessions of tutoring next week (Week #6). The retake will be on Friday Oct 16th either before or after school.

Physics - We are going to be finishing up the Vector Unit this week, also with an exam on Friday. If students are at all confused about finding resultant vectors (either by using the component method or the scale method) they need to come in before or after school and get some extra help. Grades as always are a work in progress, please keep in mind that Physics is a difficult class to grade homework, especially with all the math and partial credit. I will let you know via my blog and the students when the grades are updated.

Sincerely,

Mrs. S
