Math-U-See Mastery (St. Therese Wednesdays Session A 9:00-9:45 a.m.) 1st-4th
Course Description:
Q: How do I know which level to purchase for my student? Please take the Math-U-See placement test.
Each student will be working in their own Math U See textbook. Each week, all three books should come to class with each student. Math U See is set up in weekly units with a number labeling which unit your child is working on, with assignments A-G. An example of an assignment could be 23 B; Unit 23, second (B) assignment. Assignments A-C cover only new material in increasing difficulty. Assignments D-F are mostly the new material with a small review component to keep skills fresh, maintaining comprehension. Students should complete A-E and the test in the course of the week at home. Do not do assignment F unless they need to retake a test. If you are taking 2 full days, that leaves 3 days at home with 2 assignments daily (if A didn’t get completed in class.) Please grade the test at home and save that grade in your grade book. If you are calculating a grade for your student, average all the tests with unit tests counting twice for extra weight. If your student scores lower than 85% it is necessary that we do some reteaching and take a second attempt at a test. The second try on the test will be taken on assignment F. Then, write the second grade from assignment F over the first grade in the test book and label it 2nd try. That will make your life easier when calculating a grade. Should your child get really stuck, we recommend online practice with Khan Academy, and chatting with the teacher to come up with some strategies.
