What challenged you this week? What did you do to overcome that challenge? (show pictures or videos of it )
This week in Math, there was one confusing strategy, Fraction of an Area. I always messed up the columns and rows. In order to overcome this challenge, my friends and I ask for a re-explanation from our teacher, miss Hannah. After listening and practicing over and over again, I was able to clearly understand the concept.
What are you still having trouble with? ( shows pictures or videos of it )
Since I am only confused about the Fraction of an Area strategy and I understand it clearly, I wasn't having trouble with anything.
What did you discover this week in Math? ( show pictures or videos of it )
I discovered 3 new strategies to solve fraction of a whole number problems. Before, I solved this using a different strategy but I wasn't able to explain what I did and why I did it. My mom calls it learning like a parrot. Thanks to my wonderful teacher, miss Hannah for teaching me 3 new strategies I can use to solve the problems and explain them. The three strategies are repeated addition, fraction of an area, and the number line strategy.
What was the best thing you think you did this week? ( show pictures or videos of it )
The best thing I did this week was to solve more problems than last week. In the past week, I gossiped with my friends a lot and we weren't able to have things done on time. Learning from old mistakes, I wasn't gossiping as much as before and I'd a lot more problems than last week! Hooray!
Anything else you want to let us know about your math week?
I am just so proud about myself for learning 3 new strategies:)
