Frequently Asked Questions: This page contains answers to common questions of students and parents.
How much homework can I expect in math class?
In any of my math classes you can expect to have homework everyday. I usually assign about 25 problems a day, but I do usually give 15 to 20 minutes of class time to work on it.Back to Top

Do you give homework on Wednesdays?
We have a school policy that says we will not give homework on Wednesdays. If we skip a lesson every Wednesday we will be very far behind in our book. So for Wednesday your student will have homework but it will not be due until Friday that same week.Back to Top

Where do I go when I need help?
Please do not let yourself get to far behind before you ask for help. It is very important to always tell me if you need extra help. I will make time for you. We can meet at lunch or before or after school, or I can get a older student to help as well. Whatever you need to be successful in math we will make it happen.Back to Top

What type of field trips can we take this year?
Most of the field trips that I take with students are local, and for 9th grade history class. I do however, always keep my eyes peeled for great field trips for math.Back to Top

What kinds of field trips do we take for Michigan History?
We take several field trips during the school year to places around Muskegon, and within a couple of hours of Muskegon. These include the Hackley/Hume Homes, and the Muskegon area museum. We go to Lansing for a visit to the Michigan Historical Museum and Capital...always a great day. We also take two optional field trips for Michigan History. The first is in the fall (see the calander for date) and that is canoeing. The second is Mackinac Island in the spring. Both days are great fun, optional, and fall on a Saturday.Back to Top
