What do I do if I don't understand a homework problem?

For Grades 7 or 8 Math, look through the chapter in your textbook 
to see if there are similar problems that might take you through 
the steps.  Or go to Mrs. Hochhausler's teacher website and use 
the link to the textbook website and look up under (click blue 
text), Student Center, then on the left under Textbook 
Navigation, choose the chapter and lesson number, then Personal 
Tutor to see how problems are done-there are a few problems for 
each.  You'll need sound on your computer.

For math and other classes, review notes from class, call a 
classmate, or use the textbook, your notebook, or textbook 
website if available.  If all else fails, do the best you can and 
try to talk to your teacher before class explaining the situation.

How can I get extra practice on math problems with which I'm having trouble?

Use your textbook - in math the answers to odd numbered problems 
are in the back of the book for you to check, or use textbook 
websites or other on-line math sites (see Mrs. Hochhausler's 
website) for similar problems.

I forgot (or lost) my math worksheet. Help!!

Go to algebra1.com, (click on blue text), then Student Center, 
then Student Workbooks, then Practice-and voila!  You know have 
the workbook pages.  You can easily print out the page(s) you 
need and then your homework.
