It's a new quarter. and also a new year! Many things have happened last year and during Winter break, which means that it's all in the past now. However, that doesn't mean that we can just forget the struggles from last year, because some how in some way, they can be useful for anything and anytime.
The thing that I remember most about math is mostly all my mistakes. I remember that I had trouble with the Pythagorean Theorem, and also had trouble with remembering the properties. I remembered only the Commutative Property. It was a very big mistake, because since I forgot, my scores for my test weren't very well. Once, I asked Mr. Dorman for a hint, and he said, "Think Distributive Property." I was in a very big pinch, because I couldn't remember what Distributive Property was. I ended up getting a "B" on that test because I missed two out of a total of 10 questions. I know that a "B" isn't really that bad, but I wanted to improve myself better, and to get a straight "A" instead of a "B."
That taught me to not forget the basics, and instead, to practice and study them, because you never know when there's a moment where you will need to review them. This goes out to all the things you've learned.
