Going into this class i definitely had my worries and issues with Math and teaching Math. I always thought that I am horrible at Math so how the heck am I going to teach Math. After being in this class for the past two months I have gained a better understanding of reformed based teaching so that I can teach more effectively and efficiently. I think that I am starting to understand what it means to actually teach math rather than just teaching operations and formulas. I think that I have a better understanding of some math concepts since being in this class. I like the fact that we break things down into smaller parts so that we can understand each part before we work on the whole. It makes me feel like I really understand the content rather than just getting lucky or plugging numbers into formulas. And by really understanding it I will be able to better teach it in my future classroom.
