May 29, 2017
Mathematics Assigned By: Josh Devereaux	As you know, the mathematics exam is approaching quickly (June 16) DO NOT wait unit review materials are supplied until you start studying. I will provide you with some materials but you already have tons of them. - Any work assigned in the textbook from any section: re-do them! (unless you've memorized ALL the answers from ALL the questions this year, then this will be a perfect choice) - Any past quizzes or tests. Many students have their portfolios in class but they can be taken home at any time for extras review. We will be working on portfolios in Wednesday's class so have materials here then. - There is a practice exam at the end of every single chapter in the text, as well as a mid-unit review in the middle of every unit. Do them! If there are questions that seem funny or unlike the ones we've done this year, check whether I assigned it when we did the section and/or check with me. - Any time you want to sit with me to chat over a concept, I am more than willing to make the time. (recess, lunch, afters school, etc.) - Every Monday after school there is the Math Help Centre. - Every Thursday at lunch there is extra math help available. - Do a Youtube Search for 'NLESD math 8 videos' and there you'll see a video for EACH section we did this year. I can and will (and will be very happy to) provide extra review, but it is even more important that you take the responsibility on yourself for reviewing whatever you already have. The more YOU take charge of your studying the better you will do. Remember that long hours of studying per sitting is not useful. It is better to do 30 mins- 1 hour of regular review each night than it is to study 3 hours in one night.
