How to Learn MathStep 1: I will create an activity where I teach you the specific steps of how to solve a certain type of problem (like factoring Trinomials for example).-- You have to repeat the activity several times while focused (which is why you practice the problems immediately after I teach you how to do the steps).Step 2: This activity needs to be repeated several times - if you do 4 to 10 problems in a row and you are doing them correctly, you will learn that material - but you have to try!-- The most important part of this “learning process” is that you practice what you just learned several times in a row as you are learning it in order to encode the process in your long-term memory." If you don't do this, you'll go home and start your homework and then realize that you forgot everything you "thought you knew."Step 3:The activity needs immediate feedback,-- That means that you have to check your work as you are learning the process to make sure you are doing things correctly.-- Ask questions! Follow the process and always ask questions so you learn the material faster.-- Check your answers as you are learning the problems or come to me and go through the steps so I can guide you through the process correctly.Step 4:You need to consciously correct your mistakes -- correcting your mistakes as you make them actually speeds up the learning process.-- Work though the problem, and when you catch yourself making a mistake, correct it immediately and you'll actually learn that part of the problem better than if you never made a mistake in the first place.Step 5:This is mentally demanding work which means you should take short breaks when your focus fades. You really need to focus when you're doing homework. You'll get through it faster and it becomes a good habit.Finally, realize that the difference between an "A" student and an "F student is the number of focused repetitions they complete using the correct steps. You do this by practicing the steps as soon as you learn them and then by doing extra work (homework) on your own time. If you don't do the homework, you can't possibly learn the material, so make sure you give yourself a time slot every day so you can do the extra work. This applies to anything you learn in life; as you are taught any skill, you have to practice it correctly several times in order to encode it into long-term memory.You'll learn a lot in this class -- and its actually kind of fun according to former students.

Print out the attached Chapter 10 Test and complete it. Read all the instuctions so you know how to do this and why you are doing this.
Most all of you will not study on your own, so I will make you study so you all do well in our math class. I've taught this material to you before so all you need is to look in your big book to help you remember how to do the problems.
You will be graded on how well you do so if you don't care about your grade, I will find out.

Print out your Final Exam Pre-exams and bring them to class so we can focus on that this week: This is worth 20-points if you bring it in my Tuesday. It does NOT have to be done.
That is 100-points this week that you can earn easily just by paying attention. Don't even think of cheating because that will ruin your entire freshman year.
Learn the material on your own so the rest of you academic career math will come easier to you.

You are doing the problems in your workbook: 8 - 1, 8 - 2, 8 - 3. This is worth 30-points so please do the work the way it should be done.
Write down the problem, show all work, and then highlight your answers.
I don't want you getting frustrated with me because you are lazy. If you don't understand something, don't be embarrassed.... come and let me help you. This is what they pay me for so learn it now.
I'm always at school very early so come in then if you don't feel comfortable asking questions in front of the class.. I don't care how you learn the math, I just want you to learn it now so down the road math will be a lot easier for you. No one else is going to give you pre-exams and then re-exams as we study for the final exam.
Have a good long weekend, because we will work hard up through the final exam.

This is your opportunity to completely change your grade if you are having problems learning the material. The second time around is always easier to learn something.
All you have to have is the motivation to learn just one problem from each section from chapters 8 - 12 and each question is worth 10-points. That is a lot of points to bring your grade up and LEARN!
Our goal is everyone leaves Algebra one this semester with an A or B grade!

We will NOT be using pre-exams for chapters 11 and 12. We have become too dependant on them. Since the questions come out of the book or the work book, and I've taught you how to study using those tools, we study using the book and the workbooks.
NOTE: The class averages for this year are the highest for any freshman class in a decade so congrats -- you are doing a great job. I know its difficult, but focus and practice.

13 - 26: Graph all problems and identify x & y intercepts.
27 - 35: Write down the problem, then put into Standard Form.... that's it (you don't have to graph this section.

For problem #4, either assume 40 divided by (5)(2) or 40 divided by 5●2 and you will get different answers. In the first option; 40 will be divided after you multiple 5 & 2 because both 5 and 2 where in parenthesis, and in the second one you will divide 40 by 5 and then multiply by two because it is multiply or divide from left to right...
Be sure to re-write all the problems on a separate sheet of paper and then show all the steps of your work which should be about 4-steps for each problem. Then box / highlight your answers.
Make sure you print neatly so I can read your work. It helps you learn it faster and it allows me to see where / if you make any mistakes and I can help you with them now.

Remember; learning Algebra is a lot like watching a good movie: You watch it the first time you don’t get a lot of it because you’re brain can only take in so much so when you watch it a second time you seem more scenes that you had no idea where there. Even if you have no idea what I’m talking about the first time I teach something to you, by the time you have watched me do it 8 times, you will understand completely what I’m talking about.
Anyone can learn algebra because it is logic and common sense by following certain rules. You can NOT be a math person and still earn an “A” in Algebra.

Attached to this homework assignment (this isn't homework) are two sample syllabus / contract examples from freshmen that earned full credit for their work. If you didn't earn full credit on your contract / syllabus, compare your work with these and you will be able to see why points were deducted from your work.
If any points were deducted, the usual issues were;
1) You did not staple the contract first, then the re-write,
2) You turned in a copy of the syllabus I wrote,
3) You put little effort into your work (didn't write enough).
I'm picky about your work now so you realize that you need to do good, solid work in order to learn the material.
