Message to parents/guardians
Dear Parents/Guardians,
My name is Nasir Abdalla and I am a math teacher here at John Dewey High School. I am teaching Geometry and College Now Math 20 this year. I am looking forward to an exciting term this year. It is my goal to provide all students with an educationally challenging, yet fun, experience in my classroom.
Geometry is a very demanding course. We will cover 12 chapters to be ready to take The Common Core Geometry Regents in June 21st, 2024. There will be homework assignments daily. Each student will need a single subject notebook, a pocket folder, blue or black pens, pencils, compass, graph papers and TI-30xs Multiview Calculator for class work{Cost: $15 to $20}. These materials should be brought to class every day.
Hopefully, your child has brought home their Classroom Expectations, Rules and Procedures and you have both read and signed the contract. I have written this contract to ensure that both the students and their parents understand how this course will run. .
I have extremely high expectations for all my students. I am asking for your help to maintain those expectations by checking with your child periodically to make sure that their work is being done. I am available to help students individually before school, during my prep periods, and after school. Please do not hesitate to contact me at 718-373-6400 x 3231.
Thank you,
