These assignments will begin in October in preparation for the March HSPA

**http://nahs-hspa-prep.wikispaces.com/home** Assignments:

===__All __ 11th grade students will complete __all__ of the required ASSISTments assignments as part of your preparation for the Mathematics High School Proficiency Assessment beginning March 5th, 2013. In addition to better preparing you for success on the state mandated graduation required assessment this collection of assignments will also count as a portion of your 3rd marking period grade in your mathematics class. (Highest level class if taking multiple mathematics courses) Extra credit benefits will also be in place for students who complete all or almost all of the assignments. ===

===Student progress will be monitored on a regular basis, students failing behind the expected pace will be assigned time after the regular school day to catch up to the expected pace. __You should have at least 25 assignments completed by Thursday December 6th to be on pace!__ ===

===Individual assignments are completed by answering 3 problems correctly in a row without using any hints. After 10 problems you are locked out for that day but can try again 24 hours later. ===

===If you cannot get 3 correct consecutively after attempting 10 problems this should be the trigger for you to seek help in this particular area from your Mathematics teacher, your HSPA teacher, your HSPA mentor, or visiting the MACC lab after school. Make sure to record the name of the actual problem set that you struggling with and you will get help in that mathematical area! ===
