Hello and welcome to the 2023-24 school year at Desert Meadows. I am excited to work with you and your student this year and look forward to what promises to be a great year! Communication is a vital component of teaching and learning so I encourage you and your student to get in touch with me whenever necessary this year.
This year in 8th grade math, we will build on concepts learned in previous years in order to build new skills. 8th grade, like every year, is an incredibly important year for math. Many of the concepts need to be mastered in order to succeed in high school math. The program that we utilize is called ConnectEd Math, which is a multimedia math program that is aligned to national Common Core Standards. My hope is that your student will show great mathematical development this year. Here’s to a great 2023-24 school year!
