Westerly High School Math Department Summer Packet for students entering their JuniorSenior Year Summer Note: Enclosed, students will find a most recent SAT Non-Calculator Practice Test via The College Board Website. As with reading, continued math practice over the summer will help keep you updated and feel more confident taking the SATs this upcoming school year. Attached to the practice test is a list of additional topics found on the SAT that will be worth reviewing and the breakdown of the Math Sections found on the SAT. The following website listed below is an excellent tutorial and a free site that you are able to utilize for any review needed. www.khanacademy.org - Click on Search for Subjects, Skills, and Videos found in upper left hand corner. -Type the SubjectSkill into the Box found on the Additional Topics Covered on the SAT page at the end of this packet. - Review Videos or answer practice questions found on those topics. It is the expectation that you will have this completed by the first day of school. Good Luck! We look forward to meeting you in the fall! Happy Summer! Sincerely, WHS Math Teachers

Grid in result. Fraction line Write answer in boxes. For questions -, solve the problem and enter your answer in the grid, as described below, on the answer sheet.. Although not required, it is suggested that you write your answer in the boxes at the top of the columns to help you fill in the circles accurately. You will receive credit only if the circles are filled in correctly.. Mark no more than one circle in any column.. No question has a negative answer.. Some problems may have more than one correct answer. In such cases, grid only one answer.. Mixed numbers such as must be gridded as. or. (If is entered into the grid, it will be interpreted as, not.). Decimal answers: If you obtain a decimal answer with more digits than the grid can accommodate, it may be either rounded or truncated, but it must fill the entire grid. Answer: Acceptable ways to grid are: Decimal point Answer:.... Answer: either position is correct NOTE: You may start your answers in any column, space permitting. Columns you don t need to use should be left blank.
