=**Paula Nelson's Essential Math Page**=

I am an evening instructor at ACC Adult Collegiate. On this page, you will find the booklets that are handed out in class, as well as, so helpful sites (for extra practice), important dates, and (eventually) video of the lessons if you are unable to attend class one evening. That said, attendance will be essential to your success in the class, along with completing the assigned practices and hand in assignments. You will need a **scientific** **calculator** for this class that can be purchased anywhere school supplies are sold. I purchased some on sale for $3 each - but I think Walmart sells them for about $5. I will have a couple available in class if you forget yours, but it is best to have your own because as we get on in the course, some calculators function slightly differently - so if you have your own, you will know exactly how if functions.
