Spring is in the air and so is SCIENTIFIC NOTATION!!  Yay for that!  We will be focused on the gigantic and the miniscule over the next couple weeks before we take the Illinois Assessment for Readiness in mid-March.  Please feel free to take a sneak peak into scientific notation through Khan Academy.  Introductory videos have been loaded to give you all a head start!

Welcome everyone. I'm excited to start this new school year with you. 

I'm Sheryl Matthews, one of the eighth grade math teachers (green team). This is my first year with District 162 and Huth Middle School. I've taught middle and high school math for the last two years in Chicago. I am energetic and like to show my love of math and teaching. My goal is for everyone to develop their math skills, and their confidence in math and themselves.

I graduated from Western Illinois University with a B.S. in Mathematics. I believe that everyone should learn at least one new thing a day and should be open to new ideas. 

Feel free to contact me anytime! My door is always open and I would love to hear from you. 

I look forward to working with each and everyone one of you. 

Welcome!  Just a little bit about myself includes the fact that I LOVE to teach.  I am currently entering my 15th year of teaching and I couldn't imagine doing anything else with my life.  I have a Masters Degree in Education from Saint Xavier University and a Bachelors Degree in Physical Education from Eastern Illinois University.  I am a life-long learner, a Chicago Cubs fan, and a lover of all types of music.  My door is always open and I look forward to working collaboratively with you and your children this school year.
