This purpose of this blog is to reflect on materials that I have learned in my Math 181 Class. This blog will also help others get a better understanding of class discussions and units.

Helpful Lesson!
The activity that really helped me was today, Monday March 21, when you put us in groups of 3's. Fractions can be sometime complicated, but with a little reasurrance from your peers made it a bit easier. Fractions can be hard, but they are very basic. Even though we have been taught about fractions over and over since the 3rd grade, having a tutorial session is beneficial. Being in groups helped my understanding better. One group member may have a better understanding about a certain problem than another. It's very helpful when you collabortate with your peers. Now I have a better understanding of fractions.

ReplyDeleteFractions can really be complicated at times but it was very helpful learning fractions as a group, exploring various ideas from others. I enjoyed the group work as well.
ReplyDeleteI also have to agree that collaborating with your peers can be very helpful. The understanding of fractions can sometimes feel overwhelming so having someone to be able to turn to can also make you feel confident.
ReplyDeleteHey, I totally agree with you. I found it very easy to do fractions when we all were working in groups. Collaborative learning is a very useful learning tool within the classroom.
