My Project

My math project is going pretty well.. although I want to work on it in class some time, so when I need help I can get Mr. Davis's help. I have been researching on relations and looking back in my notes. Relations is a topic I understanded and I knew how to do so that is why I chose it. I am planning to do like a blog of Relations because I don't know who to do a website :S.. I still need to keep on working on it, but I really want to work on it in class at least once. Right now what I just need a some more information and some images in order to make the website..

Hardest Math Topic So Far

For me the hardest Math topic so far, or at least one I didn't quite understand was the d= r x t (distance is equal to rate times time.) I don't know why but I didn't understand, and I didn't understand when we needed to put it in a chart and then do an equation with it. When I studied it, there were times I knew how to do it, and do the chart and then the equation but it was complicated for me, I don't know how to do it now. Well, this is the only topic I don't understand of the ones we have studied, there have been ones that I don't understand in the beginning, but I always learn it after.

What is the best way you learn in the math class and why?

My best way for learning in Math class is working in cool activities. I learn a lot doing the examples in the book and working on the problems but I would also learn if we can do some activities like standing up ands throwing a ball and asking question. There is also a really cool game in which I learned a lot and made me add, multiply, subtract, and divide much faster (even integers) that is called "Pistolero" that may help. Also videos make me learn a lot and movies (well, it depends). My point is that I learn a lot working on the problems of the book and doing the examples that are given to me, but sometimes that may get boring and I can't concentrate when I am bored, so once in a while we can do some activities that are fun and can excite us a little and we may learn a lot! =)

Ways I have used math recently in my life..

I always use math in my life, I realized that a few days ago. When I go to the movies I need to calculate about how much money will I need, buying the tickets, the food, maybe after I will want to buy something, etc. I also used it when I need to pay my cellphone bill, for example when I owe money how much money to I need to pay to recover it and have more. I use it in my daily life calculating how many hours will I sleep, how many days till my birthday. I always try to find out in what dates and months you need to be born in 1997 in 2011 to have 14. (Its kind of complicated to explain what I'm trying to address.)
