Week 5 For some reason me and fractions just don't seam to get along. This is one area that is really hard for me to get how to do the different problems. I am really trying to study fractions more and to memorize how to do the different things like divide fractions. I think the hardest thing about fractions for me comes when you have to add fractions like 2/3 and 5/8, I am not really sure why its so hard for me but it is just hard for me to figure out how to do the problems that have different types fractions like that. I have made it a personal goal to study more and to stay and do my homework in class. I have found that as I do the homework and really think about how to do the problem that I am better able to do the problem. I am really excited to be doing decimals now, I have always enjoyed working with decimals and it is really easy for me to work with them. I hope that after more study that I will be able to love fractions as much as I love decimals.

With this last test I just was not prepared enough for the test. I have learned from my mistake and I have adjusted things so that I might be able to put more time into studying and really getting to know how to do the different math problems.

Week 3 So I kind of missed a week updating this. I have forgotten to update this. This last week I really have felt like things are beginning to make even more sense and I am understanding things for the most part. Normally when taking a test I tend to forget to do the small little things that make the difference in the solution to the problem. This last test I remembered how to do a whole lot more I really felt like I was able to do a good job on the test.

Week 1 Things are making sense to me and I am starting to remember the things I had learned in the past. For me the biggest thing I am working on is remembering the terms and what they mean. I feel like I am understanding everything and I am trying to study and learn more about the different problems that I have forgotten how to do. I am loving class and I am excited to improve my math skills over the course of this class. This class and the style of teaching are going to help me understand math better then I do now. I feel like over all I did good on the test. I just forgot to look over the terms the night before and refresh my mind so I forgot some of them and couldn't for the life of me remember what they where while I was taking the test.
