Hi parents
of Algebra I students!
We are honored to help your students become better
mathematicians and successful high school students. However, we realize it will not be possible if we try to do
it alone.
We need your help.
Please!
There are many things you can do to help your child. I don’t know all of them but I will
suggest a few.
1. Make sure you give your
child a space to work. Someplace
well-lit and quiet would be best.
2. Ask your student about what
they are learning in class and when assignments and tests are coming up. If they tell you there is nothing to
do, THAT IS RARELY TRUE. They can
always review for the upcoming test or make up an assignment they recently
missed.
3. If there is a test, make
sure your child is preparing for it.
The best way to study for math is to re-do the problems they did in
class. There are also practice
tests in the textbook. If they are
struggling, the can ask questions the next day in class
4. Another great idea is for
your child to learn to study with another student in class. Having to explain their ideas and
listen to others is the best way to learn and reinforce learning. Encourage study dates!
Please contact me if you have any questions or other ideas
to help young students.
I thank you for reading this and discussing it with your
child.
Sincerely,
Trevor Parker and Arthur Russell
