A very strong suggestion:

Many of our students in 8B are either lacking or simply slow in basic math facts. Students must know their times tables, long division, negative numbers, and operations with fractions to be successful in algebra. These are arithmetic concepts which they would have learned from 2nd (multiplication) through 7th grades. The ability to use these concepts well and quickly is essential.

I strongly recommend drilling on these items throughout fall break.
