Math

In math, you will either be in Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry or Algebra II, Mrs. Wysong teaches each of these classes except Algebra II. At the beginning of Mrs.Wysong's Class you will go over and turn in your homework from the previous day. She will then teach you todays lesson and you may or may not have notes. Towards the end of class Mrs.Wysong will give you time to complete that days homework and **don't use pen in her class.** Make sure to keep your tests, quizzes, and notes in your binder because there is a binder check at the end of each chapter.

Make sure that when you do take notes you write down some examples for your homework. This will really help because sometimes the definitions are a bit wordy. So sometimes it's easier to just look at an example of the problem.

This class moves at a fast pace at times, so make sure you are understanding the material and keeping track of your work. If you are falling behind, Mrs. Wysong will write you a pass to come down to her class during your studyhall. Don't be afraid to ask!

**Show all your work** on **EVERYTHING**!!!! If she takes points off because of this it's not because she doesn't like you she just wants you to do great, and if you don't show your work how are you going to be able to know what you did to solve that problem. She only makes you do this so later if you need help on something she can look at work so she can figure out where you made the mistake. She really hates taking off points but if you don't show your work or if you write in pen she has to because she has to treat everyone fairly.

Try to get to know her because she loves to try to get to know her students. Flip it around on her every once and a while and get to know her. She is such a sweet person once you figure out things about her. Just like any class, don't be crazy or rude. Respect is a two way street.

She also loves to see students progress. Let her know if you need help and always try your hardest. She loves to see students understand what she is teaching. Tell her right away if you don't understand. **SHE WILL HELP YOU!!!!!** I can't stress this enough. But she will help, you just have to ask.

Although she is a hard grader on tests and quizzes, she makes sure you understand the material. Never be afraid to ask to see a problem when going over homework in class, because if you don't, you'll never learn the right way to do it. She's willing to work with students individually to make sure they understand, just ask for a pass out of your studyhall.

**I**f you are absent it is your responsibility to catch up! You can miss a lot in one day. If you know your going to be absent tell Mrs. Wysong because you can come in during studyhall and she can help you on the lesson or lessons you will miss. One more thing, the home work is ALWAYS on the back board!
