 * 1) 1 - Tutoring. I tutor 2 people my age. 1 boy and 1 girl. they come with their homework and their problems and when they leave, their problems are gone. Recently one of my tutees was talking to mrs. daigle and told her that his grades were going way up and that he doesnt want to get taken out of math enrichment. When I heard this I was so glad to here it it made me feel good about myself and my teaching. recently i obtained 2 new students who are not doing so well in math and hopefully by the end of the year that will change.

= = = = =SECTION #3 MATH LEARNED ALONG THE AWAY= Along the way i learned alot more about algerbra, probability and problem solving. I learned this stuff from math sites and mrs. Daigle. last week i learned some phyisics. I learned distance vilocity and time using a magic triangle. here is a photo of the magic triangle. i just learned the pythathagorean theorem. pythagorean theorem is when you have a right angle triangle and you have side A and side B and your looking for side C (the hypotenuse). [|Pythagorean Theorem.ppt] this power point shows you the pythagorean theorem. you also can use side B and side C to find A except you subtract not add.
 * 1) 2 - SMARTboard lesson. I am getting ready to do a SMARTboard lesson for my class. I am doing it on probability. this is a link to my math lesson. u should check it out. [|math lesson].

= = =SECTION #4 FUN MATH STUFF= Some fun stuff we do in math enrichment includes [|spherox], other fun stuff was learning how to use the SMARTboard. The SMARTboard helped me learn things better because I was interacting with what I was learning. watch these 2 videos to find out how to solve the rubiks cube. the way to solve the rubiks cube is using algorithms.
