What can I work on this summer? What was that website to practice integers?

Almost everyone can use some extra work with fractions, decimals, percents,
and integers.  The website, math-drills.com is a good starting place for
worksheets with answer keys.  

If you know you need to work on a specific skill, try an internet search. 
There are lots of great websites that will help you with any concept.

I am not happy with my test score. What can I do?

You can do corrections for half credit and if you bring your test back the
next day, signed by a parent, it is a bonus point!

How do I do corrections?

On a separate sheet of paper that has a full heading including a short
description of the test you are correcting (ex. Ch 2 Test Corrections), please
do the following.  Rework the first problem that you missed, showing all of
the steps to solve the problem. Then write a complete sentence saying how you
messed up the problem on the test.  You will earn back half of the points you
missed if all corrections and sentences are accurate.
