Introductory Letter

Dear Students and Parents/Guardians,

This class is a unique opportunity for the students in the San Dieguito Union High School District. We are very fortunate to have the cooperation of the Math Department at San Diego State University to award college credit to students who are successful in this course. I will communicate with you regarding the details of course fees and enrollment procedures as they become available.

Please note that, as a participant in a 4 unit college course, students are expected to spend significant, meaningful time outside of class working on assignments, reviewing material, and preparing for exams. One “rule of thumb” is that students should be committed to work toward mastery at least 2 hours per unit per week outside of class, that is 8 hours per week for a 4 unit course.

Also, as part of a standards-based curriculum at TPHS and throughout SDUHSD, you/your student will be engaged in a variety of instructional strategies and assessments. Through presentations, interviews, pictures, project journals, reflective writing, peer critique, and videotape I hope to record the progress of your/your student's learning. My goal is to enhance all students' learning through reflective practice, a framework for learning that my colleagues and I have found motivating and effective. One of the strategies that I employ to cultivate my own learning as an educator is to share what I do in my class with others--teachers, administrators, parents, students, and professionals in and outside of the Torrey Pines High School community.

I am looking forward to this new school year with much enthusiasm. Each student will have the opportunity to explore new mathematical ideas and share what they have learned with others. If you have any questions or concerns please contact me through the school at (858) 755-0125 ext. 2120 (voice mail only) or abby.brown@sduhsd.net (e-mail preferred).

Thank You,
Abigail Brown
