Math Intervention 8
Mrs. Jackson
Math support class for 8th graders
You were placed in intervention because it was noted you needed extra support in
mathematics. This was either determined by test scores or previous or current math teacher’s
recommendations. Instruction in the class will be aligned to the pacing of their 8th grade math
class and additional support to help build knowledge gaps. There will be time for Homework
help.
