7th grade math

Hi everyone.  Here is the homework for tomorrow.  L. 29 - the Practice Set all; Multiple Practice 1-3, 7-11, 21-28.  There will be a test tomorrow that will cover any material through Lesson 25.  They should go back over their homework amd make any corrections to further understand the material. 

I asked a general question to the class today as to why they are not doing rework, when, over the past several lessons, many of them are getting F's on their homework.  The answer came back that they didn't want to.  So it is my understanding that they do not see the value of 1. getting as many problems correct as they can in the first place (they wouldn't have to do much rework then) and 2.  doing the rework to come to a better understanding of the concepts.  Would you please talk with your student about this?  Also, please make it a habit to review their math spirals so you can see their scores for yourself.

Thanks,
Mrs. W
