Hi my name is Emily. I go to Sargent Park school and am in grade 8. If I were asked if I liked math I would have to d=say it depends on the teacher. Take Mr. Isfeld for example, Sometimes he scared me. Sometimes he was hard to follow. But mostly he was a ver good teacher. Now Harbec, I have heard very good things about you and I hope I have just as good a year as my sister did.
The unit I did best in last year was Mean, median and mode because I liked how easy and striaght forward it was. I struggled in most-no all of the math units last year. But the one that was the hardest was multipliying decimals, fractions and mixed numbers. It was very complicated for me because whenevr I thought I thought I had it right I was still doing something wrong. What I could do this year in grade 8 to help me understand....
1. Pay extra close attention in class
2. Make sure I understand all my homework
3. Ask questions even if Im scared to
What could I do yo become a better student....
1. Stay organized
2. Keep track of unfinished work
3. Keep track of finished work.
4. Do all homework
5. Studie for tests
This year I dont know what I want to learn about. But whatever it is I hope its not to hard. This is a blog I worked really hard on last year. Its an exam review for circumference and area of a circle. Blogging helps me to get better at working with the computer and is helpful if I dont have the math homework assigned for the day. I want to find some helpful math websites which I could use if I dont understand something in math on the computer.
Emily, Ihope your sister's opinion is right that Harbeck is a great teacher, but judging by the time we had with him I think that this year is going to be one of the best classes we've ever taken!

ReplyDeleteGood post Emily. I could relate on how converting numbers into fractions, decimal and percents can be hard. Next time, check you spelling.
ReplyDeleteGood Post Emily, but next time reread for errors!
ReplyDeleteGreat post Emily. You said a lot of things that made a lot of sense- Isfeld scared me too. However, next time, you might want to check for errors: you made quite a few. You might want to type a little slooowwwwer. Anyways, good job.
