We will be learning/reviewing a variety of math concepts to prepare you to take the TABE Level 4 test this March and eventually your GED test. If you have questions or concerns feel free to comment on this page or email me. If you cannot attend class, you will need to email me and let me know you cannot attend and get the notes from a classmate. I am looking forward to a great quarter and if I can be of assistance, feel free to let me know.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Sincerely,</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Kelsey Buchanan</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-family:verdana;">Much needed info:</span></strong><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">This quarter's dates will be:</span><br /><br /><ul><li><span style="font-family:verdana;">January 11, 2010- March 24, 2010</span><br /></li></ul><p><span style="font-family:verdana;">Student Holidays:</span><br /><br /></p><ul><li><span style="font-family:verdana;">January 18- MLK, Jr. Day</span><br /></li><li><span style="font-family:verdana;">February 15-President's Day</span></li></ul><p> </p><p><span style="font-family:verdana;">Books are available for purchase in the bookstore:</span><br /></p><br /><br /><ul><br /><li><span style="font-family:verdana;">Math M Book-$20</span><br /></li></ul><p><span style="font-family:verdana;">My email is: </span><a href="mailto:idonumbers13@gmail.com"><span style="font-family:verdana;">idonumbers13@gmail.com</span></a></p><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:verdana;"></span></p><br /><br /><br /><br /><p></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7864153486485884097-1512010310170793978?l=mathforthesoul.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Instructor- Kelsey Buchananhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09227540710094503051noreply@blogger.com0
