4 spiral notebooks (one for each quarter)
A folder or binder to keep worksheets in if your spiral notebook doesn't have a pocket.

If anyone has an electric sharpener they can donate to my class, I would appreciate it. Ours broke last year.


Things to remember:

4. 2nd quarter we memorize common fraction, decimal, and percent equivalents.
5. Grading is figured out as follows:
Test 40%

Classwork 20%
Homework 10%
6. The grading scale is
90-100 A
80-89 B
70-79 C

8. You can email me at cheryl.himmel@browardschools.com

9. I will try my hardest to update the site so that you have your homework online, however, it is not always accurate. I only update it once a week. Your agenda is more up to date.

10. Agenda checks are done weekly in alternating classes on the team.
