WELCOME!

Ms. Mayer’s Math Classes

 

Currently, Algebra and geometry are required for 75% of all jobs, with the most desirable jobs requiring even more mathematics.  All students can succeed in this class. However, this success requires considerable effort and support.

 

An important aspect of my classes is encouraging students to support each other and work together as they learn mathematics. Students are much more successful in mathematics when they study with other students than when they work alone. As a result, students will spend some time in class working in pairs or groups. I also encourage them to work with other students outside of class by participating in homework study groups and telephone networks. However, it is important to remember that working together and copying another student’s work are very different things.

 

I need your support. Specifically, I would like you to encourage your child to attend class everyday and to be on time. Show interest in your child’s mathematics work by asking what he/she did in class daily. Encourage him/her to work hard daily. Check his/her progress by asking to see homework, notebook, tests, and quizzes weekly. The only way for a student to succeed in mathematics is by attending class every day and by working hard everyday.

 

Please contact me, should you have any questions or concerns.
