Graphing and data dissemination is a skill that you will have to develop over time in this class. You should get comfortable with reading charts, graphs, and other data displays. I suggest practicing by making up some data and then graphing it. You will also need to become familiar with the graphing software that is available to you. If you do not have MSOffice, you can always use Google Docs. They are free and all you have to do is make a Google account to use them. They work almost exactly like MSOffice. If you have MSOffice 2007. You need to do some research to find a tutorial that will walk you through using the program that you have. The one linked is a great one and it took me about 0.07seconds to find it (according to Google stats).
A note on homework: Contacting me at 9pm on Sunday night saying that you do not understand work that was assigned last Tuesday is simply unacceptable. You need to think about your work much earlier than that to avoid rushing through the work and ending up dropping points because it is late or wrong!
Extra help: I am available after school at 2:20pm till when ever you need me. If I grant you permission, we can meet during my lunch time during the day, but remember, that is my time to get lunch and also prepare work for the week, so this is only to be used in an emergency. Sport practice and after school activities (including your personal life) are not emergencies.
