Post # 5

Hey everyone....

1 Write about the most significant thing that you have learned in math in the past 2 weeks.
I have learned how to solve the "angle puzzles."

2 Write about what questions you still have or something that you are not sure about.
I am still not sure about the names for some types of angles but i will hopefully catch on soon.

3 Write about what is working for you in this class.
I am pretty good at the "angle puzzles" hopefully i will be able to stick with it.

4 Write about what is not working for you in this class.
Sometimes it is hard for me to solve the "angle pizzles" when the lines are tricky and im not sure where to start with it.

5 How do you like blogging so far?
Its not my favorite thing to do, but i don't mind it too much, easy points :)

Hey everyone,
I have focused on my goal which was to get an A. It seems to be working for me because I have an A in the class currently.


There are many things I have learned so far in this class, but here are three....
1. I have learned how to identify what different features a shape has by marking it with symbols, (parallel, equal sides, etc.)
2. I have learned how to calculate a certain percent of a number. This can help me in real life when trying to find the percent of something, for example in a clothing store, or at a restaurant.
3. I have learned how to move a shape around to different coordinates but still keep the same shape.


2 topics that I feel very good about are....
1. I feel very good about probability
2. I feel very good about graphing lines

1 topic I need some help on is....
1. I need more help on rotations by eye sight without tracing paper
These can be topics or types of problems.
