Today i took the post test 5: Mixed number basics twice and i failed it twice with small mistakes but totally passed it. then i noted what i did wrong and later in ACAM we played granny fraction bingo and we lost pretty dirty but we’re still winners!
Today in Math/ ACAM
Today in math i worked on and completed post test 3: whole number apps
i also began working on Pre test 4: Fraction basics.
In ACAM we played another game involving order of operations.
1) I normally write down problems as i do them and i write my work as best i can although i will admit it doesn’t look very organizid in another person’s eyes.
2) No it never has because i can always identify what i worked on and how i did it.
3) I can write my work neatly to myself but as for being organized i would purposely write my work nicer for others to see.
4) Todat i completed my study plan 1.10 and i recieved brief tutoring. I also studied number placements. I had fun today and pretty much BS’d all class long in ACAM and my group won 1st place.

Finding Professor Right!
Quality #1.
Good teaching skills to help us learn.
Quality #2.
Leader ship skills so the teacher could have the class pay attention and follow their lessons.
Quality #3.
Good speach skills to be able to explain something to a good sized class rather than 1 person.
This pretty much says it all
