Math 101

You have been issued a review file. I expect you to complete each question in that file before coming to class on Tuesday. You have had the file for a week, so please do not try to tell me you did not do anything yet!!

Tuesday and Thursday I will have you work in pairs to complete it, this is to ensure that you get a second opportunity to review the material.

Please prepare for this exam as it will prove to be difficult if you have not acquired the required skills. I remind you...If you are unsuccessful in this class you will not be accepted into Math 103. Please prepare!!

Taa Daa ..That's all for this week.
