  1. Welcome to Algebra 1 Mrs. Barb Cymanski Education: BA from Hiram College Masters in Education from Kent State University Experience: 25 years teaching experience in Middle School and High School mathematics Personal: I have 3 kids (2 are attending Ohio State and one is a freshman at Crestwood) My family spends much of our time training for triathlons/running.

  2. Mathematical Practices • To make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. • To reason abstractly and quantitatively. • To construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. • To model real world situations with mathematics. • To use appropriate tools strategically. • To attend to precision. • To look for and make use of structure. • To look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. • *To prepare your child for success in Geometry and Algebra 2

  3. Principles of the CPM Course Design • Problem-based lessons • Collaborative student work in structured study teams • Spaced learning-big ideas appear repeatedly and are interconnected throughout the course

  4. Steps for Success • Preparation • Attendance • Participation • Independent practice • Collaboration • Communication

  5. Assessments and Grading Policy Examples

Extra Help is Available: • I am available most days before school from 7:10-7:30am. • Math teachers are available in the math lab (upper library) during every lunch period study hall. • When students access their homework through their e-book, they can access homework help on every problem. • Parent Resources at http://www.cpm.org/parents/resources.htm

  7. Communication Parent – Teacher communication is of utmost importance for student success. If at anytime you have a concern or question, please call or email me. • Voice mail: 247-2072 Ext. 4414 • Email: barb.cymanski@chagrinschools.org
