Quarter 4

So far, I feel like this year in math has been really progressive. My teacher, Mr. Prairie, has been one of the best teachers I had in all the years of math. He has explained a lot of concepts of many challenges of the math book (course 2). He has made math fun and has explained the "math behind the math"for anything that was troubling.

My participation for this class has been not the best, but I think I have learned a lot just by lifting my hand. And if I did not understand the problem(s) if I do not get called on, it is because someone else had asked the same question I would be about to say. If I could go back, I would ask more questions even if I was to embarrassed to ask them.

I am not sure whether Mr. Prairie sees me as a great student and is ready for algebra, or a good student who just needs more practice. My brother is taking algebra this year and is very troubled with so many problems. I am nervous if I have the same problems he is having. But he is a lot more social activities than me.

I am willing to be a focused student in algebra 1. I am, at least I think I am smart enough for a challenge which would take me months to finish. The perssure in algebra could be hard to handle, but I am very confident if I am one of those lucky students to make it to Ms. Zahid's room.

On tests throughout the year, I have made the silliest mistakes that I could not believe that it was my own paper. I might have made the wrong sign, or I could have multipied wrong, etc.. If I was in algebra, I would try my hardest to finish the year with my head up and a smile on my face.
