Parent Letter

Dear Parent,

Please be advised that your child may have lost the free 100 points I gave him orher on the first day of school. The loss of the free 100 points was due to his or her NOT completing this weekend's homework assignment. (S)he will have an opportunity to earn 25 points per week over the next 4 weeks by just attempting the homework everyday. If (s)he misses one day of homework, (s)he forfeits the 25 bonus points for that week. Please help me help your child in succeeding in mathematics by making sure (s)he completes his or her homework. Your coopeartion would gratly be appreciated. Please print this letter as well as a copy of your child's grades from Pinnacle thus far and sign both. I will be collecting both for credit tomorrow.

Yours in Mathematics,
Ms. Chan
