Throughout my time in K-8 Math Methods, I have learned a ton of valuable information when it comes to the teaching of mathematics. Looking back, I can say that when i first entered this course, I was scared to death. I had very little confidence my my mathematic abilities. However, I have definitely seen a change in my confidence over the last three months. I am no longer doubting myself when it comes experimenting with different mathematic concepts. My understanding and confidence in the area of math has definitely increased. However, I still have one question. How well will I transfer this new understanding for teaching math into the classroom? When I think about this question, I think about incorporating these new learning experiences into the classroom while trying to meet state standards, preparing my students for state mandated testing, and more. However, as I mentioned above, when i first entered this class, I was scared. Yet over time, my confidence in mathematics grew. I believe the same process will happen when it comes to incorporating these teaching strategies in the classroom. Over time, my confidence in the teaching of mathematics education will increase as I gain experience in the incorporation of these strategies.
