2. Let’s Make it a Great Year
I HATE negative self-talk! Don’t do it and I won’t call
you on it!
I don’t give a rip about your math history, especially if
you think it was bad. I believe that you will be successful
this year, and I want you to believe the same thing!
I expect you to pay attention, even if you don’t
understand what’s going on. Chances are if you continue
to pay attention, you will get it! If you pay attention and
still have problems, TELL ME!
Pencils are the best writing utensil EVER! That is what I
prefer you use in math! If you don’t have one, borrow
one! If someone needs one, lend one. If all else fails,
you can trade something for one from me. COME TO
CLASS PREPARED!!
