In term 1 I learned about ratio, rate, proportional reasoning. Their are four types of ratios, two-term, three-term, part to part, and part to whole. Two-term ratio compare 2 quantities measured in the same units, three-term compares 3 quantities measured in the same units, part to part compares different parts of a group to each other, part to whole compares one part of the group to the whole group (it can be written as fractions, decimals, and percent). Their are two other types of rates beside itself. Rate compares two quantities measured in different units, unit rate is a rate where the second rate is one, unit price is a unit rate used when stopping. Proportion is he relationship that says that two rates are equal (it can be written in faction form). We had homework for this which I competed. I also did a video of seasme street for this. ======

We also learned about square, square roots, and square numbers. A square number is product of the same two numbers. A square number is also know as a perfect square and a square that is not a perfect square is called a non-perfect square. We also learned how to estimate the square of a number. ======

Another topic we learned was Pythagoras. The Pythagorean relationship can be used to determine the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle when the two legs are known. The hypotenuse is located at the opposite side of the right triangle. It is always the longest side. We also learn about the formula to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle and how you can find the missing leg of the right triangle. I payed attention to every math class so I can understand the topic and when we did the Sesame Street Video I asked someone who knew what we are suppose to do and I did it. When there is homework we should do, I do it after school or if Mr.Harbeck gives it on Friday I will do it on the weekend. If I forgot to put that we have homework in my agenda I will ask a friend what is are homework. I did listen carefully to class so I can understand the topic. I will ask a friend if I don’t understand it or if I'm having difficulties trying to know it. ======

NEXT STEPS: I can now write a piece of writing using the Friendly letter Format. I can now complete a piece of writing by going through all the steps of the writing process. I can now identify the elements of a short story + find them in a text. I can write from the point of view of a character. I can now support my thoughts using specific examples from text.
