5-7pm!!!!

Extra Credit!

Listen to the announcement here!

We are almost halfway through the year and I want to get your opinions about how you are succeeding in this math class.

I’ve prepared a survey for you to take. It will not affect your grade (positively or negatively), and will only be used by me to help you be EVEN MORE successful in our second semester.

CLICK HERE TO TAKE THE SURVEY!!!

In each class, I will select three winners (who take the survey) who will each win a FREE HOMEWORK COUPON, good for one free homework assignment.

Welcome back to 2009!

One quick announcement. Mr. Samson and Mr. Luong have begun posting their grades online. A visit to our classroom Grades page will allow you to check your grade in any of these classes.

[NOTE: Your password for my class and Mr. Samson's class is the same. Your password for Mr. Luong will be slightly different. Please check with him if you have any questions.]

For any of you who would like to take a practice quiz, before we take quiz 10 on Monday (12/15) or Tuesday (12/16), you can download, print, and score your very own practice quiz here.

After you take the practice quiz, you can check your answers here:
