Accumulative Mathematics Exam

Dear Parents:

The Accumulative Mathematics Exam for the first period is scheduled for this coming Monday October 20th. Students should prepare themselves by solving the quizzes and the test they keep in their Math Folder. The exam has two sections: In the first one they will find multiple choice questions in which they will have to select the correct answer among four or five options. In the second section, they will find open questions in which they need to show all the work and procedures to reach their answers. Questions in the second section have more value since they require more work to be solved. Students must consider solving this section first to secure those points. Besides the practice they have in the quizzes taken this period, students should solve the word problems found at the bottom of each work sheet in their math work books. Since most of the exam is based in this kind of problems, then they need to practice how to read short paragraphs in English to discover the information needed to find the answers.

Please be sure the students rest enough the night before the exam and bring all their materials (pencil, eraser, sharpener, etc) to school. They are allowed to use their own dictionaries during the math exam but they cannot share them with their classmates.

Thank you.
