Tips for Studying Mathematics • When you are absent, make up work immediately. • Ask questions and listen when others as questions. • REVIEW regularly. 10 minutes a day beats 3 hours of cramming. Trust me! • Review your notes before beginning your homework. (bring math notebook home to help complete homework) • Show all of your work and check your work. Develop good habits during practice will help during tests and quizzes. • Make a list of important concepts and formulas. Make sure you can explain concept in your own words.
