K-8 Math Methods is so much different from any other methods and/or math class I’ve ever taken. The approach is much different, which I appreciate. This class has showed me that I have a chance at being a decent math teacher—granted, it’s a very small chance, but a chance nonetheless. I have learned a lot from Dr. Reins, but I’ve learned even more from my fellow classmates. The LPU presentations have been very interesting, fact filled and entertaining, but I’ve picked up a lot more knowledge from our “talk time” in class. I am seated around a handful of great gals (and occasionally Adam and/or Kyle), we’re all very comfortable with each other and explaining ourselves and our ideas. So many of my math fears have subsided because of a one-on-one explanation from one of my peers, which is really something special.

ReplyDeleteI would have to agree that the LPU presentations have been very educational and provided a different way of looking at certain concepts. Math is one of my fears and I know it shows but after almost two months into this class I to have felt my fears slowly start to fade away. I hope by the end of the semester you fears will be completely gone. Oh and you will make a great math teacher!
