                        To start off, I wanted to say that this is our last Monday blog of the year. I am really gonna miss having to write blogs on math Monday, but this is our last day. To start off with, writing in the Monday blog all year about math has really helped me a lot. Like, it explains more of what I need help on, or it just helps other people that need help on the math their working on. Math Monday's have helped me so much, I appreciate it because I can explain what I learned this whole year, and it's a whole lot. Math Monday can help other students verify what they need help on and they can explain why they need help on it ,too. Sometimes writing a blog is helpful because so people put a lot of effort on what they are working on, and it helps people that are failing, or they can find someone who is like, going through the same thing that, person is going through. Every since I started to write blogs, I express how I feel about math, or what I feel of how the problem should be solved, everything in the blog can be your opinion. When I write on math Monday blogs, I usually write about my diffuculties that I am facing.


                        When I first started to write my first blog, I actually didn't know what to write. I just put a few sentence, and Bam! I just don't know. But every since I started to get used to it, I like have this feeling when I start to type a blog, I always say to myself, " Oh I'm not gonna have two paragraphs ." I always get that feeling because I don't know how to start it off. But when you start to type, you realize you have a lot of words to say based on all your thoughts you haven't thought about. You then realize that you do need help, and you especially notice all the things you are having difficulties, but every since I've been doing blogs, It's helped me a little through out this school year. When we comment on a persons, or a classmates blog, you then realize what they are going through and compare the difficulties or opinions they are facing, and you can also learn from what they have to say also. But other than that, the Math Monday blog has helped me out a lot through out this school year.

Struggles In Math

                     In math, I'm struggling on quite a few things, like trying to find the area, volume, and perimeter. It's not hard, but the most difficult thing about it for me is trying to memorize what each of them does. Like I forgot how to find the volume. Sad right? another thing is trying to do box and whiskers, I don't get it at all. I don't even get it that I can't even explain it. Another thing I am failing on in math is communicative property, and all that other junk. Like multiplicative property, addition of property. It's all confusing for me, I don't even know what it is, like how it is supposed to look. Another thing is trying to find the median, mode and other stuff. I don't get those at all, I mean I know how to solve them each, but I can't rememeber how to start to solve nad find a median. I can't rememeber how to find it, especially like trying to find the mode, it's kind of the same thing like trying to find the volume, area, and the perimeter, for me those are just difficult and confusing to remember.


                   In math, equations are hard for me too. Not really hard, but somewhat difficult. Like I can't explain how to find a  certain number, like fo example [ there are 28 boxes of candy, and there are 6 bars in each box. The school has to raise 500 dollars, how much does the candy bars cost? ]. Exactly, like that is very confusing for me, like I understand what it means I just don't know how to start solving it, I don't know the next step, it's just very difficult for me. Another thing is circles, like finding the circumference, and the radius. It's difficult seeing all those numbers, and not knowing what is which and what it is.
