Home Page

This is the home page for Maddux Blog. If you would like to find about more about me click here .
The purpose of this blog is to keep my Pre-algebra students up to date on What's happening in our class. In the What's Happening section parents can look to see some things that are happening day to day in our class. This could also be a place where students can look for information when they are absent. Just click on the whatshappening label on the left side of the page.

In addition there are links to a Problem of the Day and to Homework for each day. There is also a link to some Math Humor.

For those of you who are interested in the Policies and Procedures in our classroom we have a page for classroom policies where the rules for missed or late work, absences, tardies, grades, and classroom discipline and rewards are explained. This page will also let you know how to communicate with the teacher and what materials students are expected to bring to class.

Resources for Students: In this section I have put links to different resources on the web that students can use to help them study or review what they are learning. Click here.

A new feature in this blog is a photo gallery. I have provided a link for you to see some exciting photographs at the school. Just click here.
