It is important to start the year well by studying because in a language,
later learning builds on old learning. Everything we learn now will be used
all year.
Please know that students have regular homework and should be studying to
put the language into long term memory. And my Web Page Current Work Link
is their friend.
Students should have their notebooks organized with their colored sheets of
grammar in the grammar section and colored vocabulary sheets in vocabulary
section. They need to be able to refer to them throughout the year because
language learning always builds on and recycles old material and they have to
be able to refer to that.
If your son or daughter is having trouble with tests because of not
understanding sentences in the test, my website under Exam
Review provides excellent practice because that is where I move all old
practices. They need the old words to learn and test the new material. It
would also help them to come after school to go over old tests.
If there is any chance your son or daughter is not doing homework, check the
homework site on this page. There are some general guidelines at the top.
That will give you a heads up if they are not doing it. There is always
something to study.
Please note that if students are having any trouble, they can practice on
my practice website (accessible through the Links icon on this home page)and
come to free tutoring by National Honor Society any Tuesday after school or
by me on other days.
Students who are having trouble should be practicing on the website that
they should have bookmarked (See the Links
Icon on this home page). The conjugation site located on my website is
especially helpful.
