Term 2 Reflection AudioBoo

Term 2 Math Reflection


In Term two we learned about percent,total surface area and volume.I did well on the TSA unit in term 2 I struggled in the volume unit because I didn’t practice enough.I think if I read more of the blogs more and learned easier methods I would have been better .The things I learned about percent is finding parts/amounts of certain things.In TSA,we learned how to find the size of different shapes and in volume we earned how space something takes up.


I will upload the audioboo later.

Katerina'sTerm Two Reflection

Listen!'>Term Two Reflection







Sorry I didn't know how to add the thing on like everyone else.





Hello, I am Katerina from room 8-73!



Term two:



I did very well in volume and surface area. I really enjoyed working on it. One thing I really struggled on is the percent unit. In percent I learned how to find the tax of an object. Next term I hope to do better and finsh all of my homework! Also, i hope to do better in term three. The difference between surface area and volume is that the volume is the volume of and surface area is the surface of the object. then you add it up and to get Total Surface Area!

Thanks.

In Term 2 we learned about percents, surface area and volume. I didn't really do well in percents because I didn't study at all so my marks definitely were bad. In surface area and volume I did great! I actually understand how to do both of them and I did great on the tests. I understood what to do and I knew what the formulas were. I learned that to find the volume of a rectangular prism and a triangular prism is area of base x height. I also learned that to find the volume of a cylinder is pi x r x r = h. Next term I will listen more in math class so I could get perfect on my tests. And I will also do more blogs.

Term 2 Reflection

In term 2 I did really good in volume because I really understood what to do and how to do it. In this term I kind of struggled in surface area because I didn’t really understood the formula or how to solve the questions. In term 3 I will focus more then term 2 and really try to ask for help if i didn’t understand anything. In percent I had learn how to find how many percent of things that is contained in something. For example we learned how to find how many percent of apple juice is in the carton after 10 people had a glass of it. In surface area I learned how to find areas of different kinds of shapes. Finally in volume I learned how to find how much the whole shape is. The differences between surface area and volume is in surface area you are finding how many units there are outside and in volume you are finding how many units there are inside.

Term 2 Math Reflection

Listen!

Term 2 Reflection

This term, I got a higher mark. I did really well on the quizzes. Volume was really easy for me, and I understood it really quick. The thing that I struggled on is surface area because it was difficult for me to understand, and somehow I struggled on tests because I usually don’t show my work. I’ll try to do my best for next term by studying more, and showing my work, asking more questions to my teacher, commenting on the blogs more, and explaining more on my blog posts, participate in class more, and do more work in my homework book. In term 2, we learned about converting fractions into percents, surface area, and finding the volume to a rectangular prism, triangular prism, and cylinder. We also learned formulas like LxW and BxH/2. I’m hoping I can improve and focus more on term 3 and I hope I don’t slack as much as I did in term 2.

I'm having a hard time trying to put up my audioboo. The sound doesn't work.

Term II Reflection

I really tried to do well in this term. You could say I succeeded...
I did well with surface area and volume this term because if you compared them to the rest of the endless topics in math, they’re relatively easy. In the “greatest volume test”, I got 19 out of 19 correct (or was it 18?). I kind of struggled with tax at first, but I got the hang of it fairly quickly. I'll do better next term by checking my work on tests so I won’t make any stupid mistakes and also making sure I do all of my homework.
I learned a lot during the percent unit. I learned how to calculate taxes, handle fees, and most of all, how to make a 5-minute math video (6, really) with about a dozen people watching you... awkwardly...
The surface area unit was pretty easy. The formulas were simple and easy to learn and you only needed three of them (not including the half a dozen cylinder formulas). The only problem you really run into is the lack of looseleaf that ensues after drawing about 30 nets.
Volume was the easiest of the three. Just three formulas, a pencil, and a calculator away from actually acing a test. Of course, if you don’t screw up multiple choice, your cubic units, your cubic units... if you check your work really good, you should be fine.
In this term, I did really well on the tests, but I didn’t do absolutely all of my work.
In the next term, I will try to do all of my work as well as keeping the test marks up.

Term 2 Reflection

This past term I learned about percents, surface area, and volume. I honestly think i did better on finding volume because i understood it more quickly and better. I also think i did better in finding volume because i remembered mostly everything about it more then i remember stuff in surface area and percents. I think i struggled more in surface compared to percents because it took me a while to get it and i got a little confused. I can do better in the next term by asking more questions about something if i don't get it right away since sometimes I can just be silent about it and working more harder. In this term i learned a lot of things like finding the surface area and volume of a cylinder, triangular prism , and rectangular prism.

*audioboo will be posted later on*

Term 2 Reflection

In term 2, I think I did well on the test and quizzes throughout the term. In this term I learned about percents, surface area, and volume. In percent, I learned how to add taxes like, PST and GST to prices (numbers). In surface area I learned how to find the area of a shape like triangles, rectangles, and squares by using certain formulas such as lxw, and bxh/2. For volume I learned the formula for finding the volume which is lxwxh. In term 2 i struggled in percents because last year I missed the classes when they were going over percents. Next term I will try to participate in class, and do my blog work correctly. The difference between volume and surface area is the volume is volume is measuring how much capacity a shape has and surface area is the measurement of the exterior.

Emily's Term 2 Reflection

I did the best on the volume unit during term two. I got 100% on all of my volume tests. I found the formulas easy to use. the easiest shape to figure out for me was the right rectangular prism. Volume was also easy because it didn't take a lot of work to figure out.

I did really good in math this term but my worst unit would have to be surface area because I messed up on the unit test. But I did good on the rest of the quizzes.

I will do better next term by making sure I review my work before tests. I always did my homework but to improve I would make sure I take more time to get the right answers.

I learned that percent could be represented as a decimal and a fraction. You could also represent a percent by using a hundred grid. I also learned about the percent of a number and combining percents using basic math strategies. For surface area we learned how to calculate the surface area of a cylinder using the formula 2.p.r.rx2.r.h. We used lxw for a rectangular prism and bxh/2 and lxw for a triangular prism. During the volume unit I learned how to find the volume of a right rectangular prism using the formula lxw.h. I also learned how to find the volume of a right triangular prism using the formula bxh/2.h and I learned how to find the volume of a cylinder using the formula p.r.r.h. Lastly I learned how to find the volume of a shape with a piece taken out of it.

Kristopher's Term 2 Reflection

Term 2 Reflection

In term 2, I think I did good on most of the tests but not all. I think I did good on theses tests because I remembered what I needed to do to calculate the answers. I really liked calculating the volume of 3D shapes because I like working with the formulas and it was interesting. The rectangular prism formula is LxWxH and is the easiest to remember.

In term 2, I think I struggled with blogging the most because I didn't comment as much as I should of and the quality of my blogs was not that great. Now I know I should do my blogs as soon as possible after school and not wait until after soccer or other sports because I get tired and want to go to sleep.

In term 2, we also learned ho wto solve percents by converting them to decimals and fractions, how to calculate taxes such as GST an PST, find the are of different 3D objects such as cylinders, rectangualr prisms and triangualr prisms we also we also learned how to calculate the measurements of a circle such as the circumfrance, radius and diameter.

In term 3 I will try to get 100% on the tests, complete my bog and comment on the other blogs. I will make sure that I stop goofing off and pay more attention so I can do better on the tests.

TERM 2 REFLECTION
In this term I did very well on all the things I learned examples are.. Pythagoras, percents,surface area and volume.I did well on all of this things because I asked questions when I wasn’t sure what to do and I studied and pretty much did what I had to do.But what I really liked learning about was surface areas and volume because it was easy once you know the formula and its fun challenging yourself by trying.Percent was easy too because I learned a very useful skill when shopping and when figuring out grades. I would really say that I did very well this term.
I kind of struggled on percents because you need to learn a lot like how to find the dollars per second or km/hours.
Next term I will study more and practice more so I can do better next term, I would probably ask more questions.
In percents I learned how to find the sale price, for surface area I learned how to find the areas of different kinds of shapes like triangles and find areas of 3d shapes, for volume I learned how to find volumes of different shapes very similar to surface area but different formula.
The difference between surface area and volume are that surface are is that there are different formulas involve but the thing they have in common is that they both have a method of finding the inside space of a shape.

Term 2 Reflection

In term two, I did well on getting my homework completed on time. We learned about percents, surface area, and volume. For percents, I learned how to add GST% and PST% to a certain price or number that was given in the math problem. Surface area was my favorite thing that I studied during the second term because I got good marks on my quizzes and test. I found it easy once I knew all the formulas.I learned how to find the total surface area (T.S.A) using formulas such as (πr^2) for finding the T.S.A of a cylinder, (lxw) for finding the T.S.A of a rectangular prism, and (bxh/2) for finding the T.S.A of triangular prism. For volume, I learned a new formula which was (πr^2)xh. I learned that the volume is the amount of space inside a shape. I used to struggled on the problems when you had to find the volume of a shape with another shape added or taken away from it. Next term, I will try to do better by asking questions and communicating with my classmates.

Breanna's Term 2 Reflection


In term 2, we learned about percent, surface area and volume. I did very well understanding the work that we were given and that showed greatly on my tests and quizzes by getting perfect or almost perfect. In term 2 I didnt necessarily struggle with commenting on the blog, i was just being a lazy teenager and not commenting like I should have. Next term I will make sure that I comment on all the blog posts posted for this term and try and get perfect on all of my tests and quizzes to reach the highest mark possible. We did alot of work with percentages, surface area and volume. The tax in Manitoba it 12%, 5% GST and 7% PST. You have to find out what 12% of your price is and then what ever that number is you add that onto your original price and it will come to your total. I learned that surface area is measured in square units like cm^2 or km^2. I also learned how to get the surface area by taking the shape you have apart, finding the area of the sides, then adding them all togeather to get the total surface area or "TSA". I also learned about volume, like learning how to get the volume of a cylindrical, rectanguar or trangular prism. To find the volume of a rectangular prism you have to use the formula V= LxWxH. To find ther volume of a triangular prism you use the formula V= BxH/2xH, and finally the formula for the cylinder was V= (pi.r.r)xH.
