Ms. Andrizzi's Math Class

We completed a review activity on Surface Area.  Tonight's homework is to complete the study guide for the quiz tomorrow.  I will be having a morning help session at 8:25.  You may enter the study session with a completed study guide.  Too many students are routinely coming to class unprepared without necessary materials and homework.  This effects how a student performs on assessments.  I am happy to hold study sessions as long I know that the students are also studying at home: )
