Showing ALL STEPS
Studying incorrect answers and erase only the part that is incorrect, then correct it
● Time Goal:
3-5 minutes per page
The study time goal is 20-30 minutes per day.
Your Instructor will continually adjust the number of pages your child is studying to adhere to this goal
● Grading Reminders:
LCM answers are located next to the answers in the grade books – make sure your child is using the LCM
Students must be able to learn from their mistakes daily
Take the time to grade and let them find and correct their own errors independently
Students can use what they have learned and apply it to the next day’s assignment allowing them to move smoothly and independently through the assignments.
