Sail into Summer with Math! For Students Entering Algebra II The Pyle Math Department requests that students review math skills over the summer. Reviewing core concepts helps students retain math knowledge and helps them prepare for success upon return to school in the fall. Students may use the online program skills tutor OR this review packet. EITHER the completed onlineskills tutor lessons OR the summer review packet is due to the student s math teacher on the first day of school. Students are welcome to try other course assignments, as either review or enrichment. However, completion of the next level s assignment is not a pathway into the next course. Students who are accelerating through a math course are expected to complete the lessons for both the course that is passed over AND the course in which the student is enrolled in for the upcoming school year. For example, a student who just completed Math 5 in 5th grade and is registered for Math 7 in 6 th grade should complete the lessons for both Math 6 and Math 7. This is regardless of teacher recommendation or a pre-approved parent placement change request.
