Good notes:
We were asked to draw figures that were similar but not congruent and I did it so that they had the same angles and the same general shape.
We were asked which figures were similar and if they have the same angles they are similar.

Well if you want to know about my math history, skill level and my perspective on math, first things first you should know I have a math tutor. That is because I am not a math whiz. I have never been in seminar and I am not the top of the class. I want to get better but one more thing that stands in my way I don’t love math. I lose interest fast and I want to get better so I pay attention more. I like learning math because it can challenge me but I get discouraged fast so I don’t like so difficult so I don’t get discouraged before I can finish the problem. The reason I don’t like learning math is A. I get discouraged about half the time. When I am doing homework and I am on a problem that has a lot of equations I take another page to do a long strategy and rely figure it out so I can advance in the problem. One other thing I don’t know if you do this but I cannot do take home tests I know Margaret did them all the time I always fail them I feel no pressure taking tests in school so having a take home test is just a bucket load of extra math work. And I have to complete in one week and the more work the more discouraged I get and the more lazy I get and I start to care less and get a worse grade. But I am excited to improve in math and start to enjoy it more. So that’s all you need to know about math and I.

I think that I liked the in class test better. But this wasn’t terrible I think That I could have done better. But I am proud of it. 
This is a pop quiz we get one every day we have math. This one got a three and I am pretty proud. THey are sort of difficult and I am proud that I met expectations. Ecspecially because I only have 10 mins. I am shooting for a 4 at one point this year.
My note book is a tool I could improve on working with but i have gotten better over the course of the year. I still have not really gotten into the habit of putting a date and title in every page but I am working on it. I think that I will get better at not making as many lines in my notebook but it will be a difficult fight because it is a habit. But I have not done it in a while! My note book can really help me think and learn and I am looking forward to improving on using it as a tool over the course of the second quarter and the rest of the year.
This is my tessellation. A tessilation is a pattern that could repeat over and over again and never end. A challenge that I had was figuring out how it would repeat. But it worked out. It is made of squares and triangles. I am really proud of my tessilation.
This is my venn diagram. The most challenging thing about it was arranging the square, rhombus and rectangle because they all have to go together. But not all rectangles are rhombuses. I felt proud when it was finished.
