How to be Successful in 6th Grade AMPS Mrs. Jenkins 2B class
Before Class • Have all your homework completed (and with you) • Have your materials with you (binder, paper, pencil or pen) • Get in “math mode.” (Start thinking about what we did last class) • Bring your Math Journal on Mondays! • Study (look through papers from class or from your own resources) • Practice some math problems
During Class • Go over your work several times (before during and after) • Listen and don’t blurt out!!! (Teacher, students) • Participate (it keeps you focused) • Cooperate in groups (PARTICIPATE IN DISCUSSIONS, SHARE YOUR IDEAS, DON’T ACT SILLY, BE CREATIVE, STAY ON TOPIC) • Take good notes (not necessarily verbatim, use charts and diagrams, put it in your own words!!!) • Pick up the papers from the tray • Stay on task to keep from distracting others • ASK QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!! (relevant questions)
After Class • Stretch out your homework over two days • Take all your junk with you • Bring your homework home • Return all things you borrowed • Stay balanced (don’t spend all your time and energy on one thing) • Study for quizzes ahead of time (not the night before) • Review what you learned so it stays fresh in your mind • Ask questions after class if you didn’t get to ask in class • Go to Mr. Platt for tutoring (?)
