Mrs. Johnston - Math 7 and Math 7A

Located in room 201

 "Where we make new brain connections every day!!!!!!!!!!!"

The best advice I can give you for yor child to succeed in math is to make sure that they are practicing everyday.  We practice in class everyday and I assign homework everyday. Check the homework hotline - 656-3333 mailbox #8100.

Please don't ask them to study for a test.  The best way to prepare for tests is to practice, practice, and more practice.  Doing their homework is the only way they can check for their own understanding.

We do not have a textbook.  If you would like to see what is in our curriculum please go to the following web site to view the 7^th and 8th grade state standards.
