  1. Welcome!Sit anywhere! 2018-2019 School Year Fallon Middle School G-4 Ms. Breana Bush Course 1 Common Core Math *

  2. Fall Checkpoint • Math placement letters have been emailed to all families with results from the Fall Checkpoint.   • Please note: Tonight is reserved for getting know our class and therefore, we will not be discussing math placement during this Back to School Night presentation. • If you are planning to appeal the math placement, the appeal window will open Wed, 8/22, on the DUSD math website: http://bit.ly/DUSDappeal

  3. About Me • High School Valedictorian • Bachelors: UC Berkeley in Math • Teaching Credentials: San Jose State • Teaching Experience: Course 1 math, Course 2 math, High school Geometry (This makes Teaching year 8) • Co-Lead of the math department

  4. Website and Contact information • To access: • Fallon School • Teacher Sites • Breana Bush • Check homework assignments, long term assignments, upcoming quiz and test dates… • GREAT tool when absent! • bushbreana@dublinusd.org (best way to contact) • (925)875-9376 ext. 6470.

  5. Please see Syllabus on my website (parent signature was due today)for…. • Detailed info on supplies used daily • Detailed info on grading policies and percents • Detailed info on homework • Detailed info on absences • Detailed info on behavioral expectations and consequences

  6. Key Points from Syllabus • Expect DAILY Homework • Late work for reduced points, but with deadlines! • HW on a separate piece of paper (UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED), all work shown properly. There may be writing involved and full sentences are required. • HW that earns partial credit for being incomplete or not enough work can be fixed and resubmitted • In pencil ONLY • STUDENT’S responsibility to makeup work from absences • Department policy is no extra credit!

  7. Retakes There is a retake policy for this course. Information about it will be posted on my website when it is relevant.

  8. Equal signs lined up, each step shown, scratch work on the side

  9. Other Acceleration Reminders • DPIE and Other Programs • TALK TO ME FIRST • Appropriate Level Course • Taking a course is NOT a guarantee regarding placement • There is such thing as TOO FAST • Calc AB REQUIRES a student to be in 11th grade or higher • Too far too soon = a year without relevant (or any) math!

  10. How to use my website to help your child succeed

  11. Online Textbook Access • Each student will receive a user name and password to access the online textbook and tools. (I am waiting to receive these) • The website is on the front of their textbook. • This gives access to some homework solutions, extra examples, video tutors, extra practice and other very useful tools. • An online textbook is also available through the site, but your child will receive a hard copy.

  12. Online Textbook Orientation
