Chapter 1 Review Page

PROMPTS:

  • The part of chapter 1 that I am most comfortable with is all the factoring. I am very comfortable with finding the factors needed to complete and simplify a question. I know how to use both methods to complete a question as well as using factoring to solve.
  • The most difficult part of chapter 1 for me is recognizing when to switch the sign when multiplying or dividing a negative when calculating restrictions.
  • I usually learn new material best when I spend time either doing practice problems to increase my understanding or writing out and going over all the main concepts with examples so I can determine what I am comfortable and not quite comfortable with yet.
  • I plan to prepare for the unit test by doing more practice problems with the workbook and the extra practice section of the Class Notebook. I plan on doing a few questions from each section of chapter 1 and doing more questions in the chapters I don’t understand as much.
  • I have already or I have not yet completed all the assigned practice problems. If not, explain when you plan to complete them. I have completed all of the assigned practice problems.
  • Tell me what this statement means to you, in reference to math class: “I persevere with challenging tasks and take ownership of my goals, learning and behavior.” To me this statement means not stopping in the middle of a question when I realize I have been doing it wrong or not understanding what I am doing. It means working to get the grade that I want in this class and asking for help when I don’t understand a question or concept.

By doing work on the whiteboards in the classroom, I made a positive difference for my peers because I helped them when then needed it and it was fun working with other people.

Examples of where I communicate clearly and purposefully can be seen when I’m working with other people and explaining my ideas. Another time is during the communication part of the tests I do.

When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I listen to music. Listening to music makes it easier to clear my head and focus on the task I need to complete. Also, depending on the song it can boost my mood.

Some of the ways I work to build and maintain relationships are communication because talking about things in a relationship is key to making it work. I like to talk and talking with people makes the relationship better.
