Personal Narrative: Algebra

994 Words4 Pages

For this past year i have grown in Algebra. I came in here knowing very little about math and having algebra showed me alot. I now know things i would never thought i'll know or get. Ms.M is a good teacher but I feel like he should teach one topic for like 3 days because he just shows it one time and then the next day he moves on, or maybe thats high school. If I wouldn't come here I would never understand the problems Mr.M gives us. Algebra 1 is one of my favorite classes. I really like Algebra 1 because I love how my teacher teaches. He would give you a real live problem, then see the similarities between the problem and the math. Afterwards, when you see the problem you immediately know what to do because you could remember the real life problem and you do great on it. Also, at first I thought I was going to fail that class because I couldn't understand anything. But, after a while I really got the hang of them, and now I'm kinda good. I am most proud that I could actually do very hard math.

I think I tried my best in P.e class but i guess i needed more than that. I feel like i have pushed myself very much to run, something i rarely used to do. I never run in my middle school. I would always get tired very easily, so I would just give up. Now, …show more content…

Wednesday's we had a community circle so I got to know stuff I wouldn't never imagined of each one of them. I guess that made us closer and now we all feel confturble. At the begging me and Ms.R did not have the best relationship . It was so bad that I wanted to move schools. With time we somehow settled and figure things out so we now have a better relationship. I'm glad that we did because I know we are very alike. Now I really enjoy going to advisory everyday. I also like advisory because I get to do my missing work. Also do work that's coming up so at my house it would be easier for me when I get their and I wont have as much

Reflect on this interaction: did it go as you planned? Hoped? What was easier than you thought it would be? Harder? What did you learn?

It is almost the end of the day in which we end with my second favorite lesson. Math with Mr. Berger. Again although my class has been yelled at alot, math was really fun. We learned about tessellation which is formed by repeating one or more shapes so they fit together without leaving any gaps or overlapping. We drew those and it was so fun.

The problem with this class was I could not make any connections with what I was supposed to learn and other math classes. I was able to pass the class with the help of the tutor; however, I did not retain all of the concepts needed to solve the difficult equations. I was able to retain enough information

Another thing that I enjoyed was creating and voting on the shirt we will make for the end of the year. If I were to take this class over again, something I would do differently would be to involve myself more in the class. I feel as if I would have involved myself more, then I would have understood more. When studying, try to get rid of all distractions. If distractions are present, it takes away the motivation to finish what needs to be done.

My math teacher never gave up hope on me he helped me as much as he could and although i wasn't anywhere as good at math as i would have like to be i was in a better place than what i left off. Once i transferred from hope to The Met my motivation, determination and and go getter attitude began to sprout more and i found myself finishing projects that weren't due for weeks ahead of time, i found myself helping my classmates complete work that i had already completed and it made me happy to have set goals for myself and accomplish them way ahead of time and it was nice knowing my advisor was proud of me too. I wish i would have had the mindset that i do now for my first 3 years in highschool a more mature, go getter, ready to learn and better myself mindset.

Classes were always interesting when you had to decide if you were going to take things seriously. The most difficult courses I have taken are math and physics. For some reason I truly believed I was pretty good in math, but as the years went by my skills told me otherwise. I loved Geometry it was so interesting, it was a bit easier to learn about and I truly believe that if it weren't for our teacher, who took the time to explain what she was teaching, I would not have understood the subject. Junior year was when I truly realized that math was not my best subject and it began to show.

At first, I hated it because I was forced to do a packet every single day to practice my math skills. I remember hating almost every single minute that I spent answering those packets. However, as time passed and a hundred worksheets later, I noticed that my skills were improving and so did my math grade. I

The teacher and course that had the most impact on me would be math with Diana Synder. The reason she have had an impact on me is because I thought I would never make it through math. She encourage me by pushing me beyond my comfort zone with math. Ms. Synder, would answer any questions that I had with concern for math. She has opened my mind to the possibities of what I could achieve if I continue to work hard and stay focused.

I hated it, especially because it tested me on math that I had not learned in my classes so I had to teach it to myself, but in order to get a good grade, we had to pass every module with an “advanced proficiency.” I failed each module at least 10 times and had to ask my teacher to reset my progress so I could try again. It seems silly now, but it made me so miserable and frustrated I would cry while doing the problems. This went on for weeks and by the end of it I had only learned enough to pass the test and nothing more.

She wanted to join the STEM club and only because I had to drive her to school early anyway, I came along to that first meeting too. And even at first, I didn't feel a burning passion for what we were doing. The STEM Career Fair was half a year away, and we were still in the intangible phases of brainstorming and planning. The STEM club was just

Math is everywhere so you must be aware of it regardless of how you feel towards the subject. Like many things in life we all have certain strengths and weaknesses when it comes to math I try my best and set my expectations as such. When it comes to my finances I have to use math to budget my money for the week. For instance, if I know that I bills to pay I cannot go over my budget because if I do I will not have money for the upcoming week. I also have to be vary of what I actually am
