My goal for the year, in addition to covering the state mandated TEKS (Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills) is to instill a love of math in the students. </P> <p style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.25in; style=; COLOR: #666699">FWAFA purchased a new curriculum called Cscope and we will be using it for all academic classes school wide. I will also be using the new textbooks we received last year. Please don't be alarmed if we don't use the textbooks as much as we have in the past. I will be incorporating some of the Cscope activities into my lessons which will involve more hands on lessons. I am excited about this new resource and I am looking forward to implementing it in the classroom. </p> <p style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.25in; style=; COLOR: #666699">The school has a classroom set of TI83 Plus graphing calculators and they will be available during class. I strongly urge Algebra I and Algebra II students to purchase their own to use at home. This calculator will be used on the TAKS and can be used on the SAT and ACT tests. </p> <p style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.25in; style=; COLOR: #666699">In all my classes I expect students to take good notes and complete all homework. I will be available during lunch by appointment if a student needs extra help or needs to make up a test. I will set up some after school tutoring times in a few weeks. The best way to contact me is by e-mail. My e-mail address is <a href="mailto:karen.chevalier@fwafa.org">karen.chevalier@fwafa.org </a>. </p> <p style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.25in; style=; COLOR: #666699">The best way for you to check on your child's progress is to go to <a href="http://www.snapgrades.com/">www.snapgrades.com </a> . Passwords and other information about this online grade book will be given out soon. </p> <P style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.25in; "></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD style="PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; PADDING-TOP: 0in; WIDTH: 12.32%" vAlign=top width="12%"> <P><![if !supportEmptyParas]><![endif]>&nbsp;<STRONG><SPAN style="COLOR: #666699; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"></SPAN></STRONG></P></TD> <TD style="PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; PADDING-TOP: 0in; WIDTH: 0.38%" width=0%> <P class=MsoNormal><![if !supportEmptyParas]><![endif]>&nbsp;<SPAN style="COLOR: #666699"></SPAN></P></TD> <TD style="PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; PADDING-TOP: 0in; WIDTH: 83.7%" vAlign=top width="83%"> <P style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.25in; "><![if !supportEmptyParas]><![endif]>&nbsp;<SPAN style="COLOR: #666699"></SPAN></P></TD></TR> <TR> <TD style="PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; PADDING-TOP: 0in; WIDTH: 12.32%" vAlign=top width="12%"> <P>&nbsp;<STRONG><SPAN style="COLOR: #666699; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"></SPAN></STRONG></P></TD> <TD style="PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; PADDING-TOP: 0in; WIDTH: 0.38%" width=0%> <P class=MsoNormal><![if !supportEmptyParas]><![endif]>&nbsp;<SPAN style="COLOR: #666699"></SPAN></P></TD> <TD style="PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; PADDING-TOP: 0in; WIDTH: 83.7%" vAlign=top width="83%"> <P style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.25in; "><![if !supportEmptyParas]><![endif]>&nbsp;<SPAN style="COLOR: #666699"></SPAN></P></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></DIV> <P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #666699"><![if !supportEmptyParas]>&nbsp;<![endif]><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV></BODY></HTML>
