It's Mathematics Awareness Month.
Every month is Mathematics Awareness month in Mr. Thump's class!![]()
I'll tell you one thing, the poor kids have been getting tested to death. They had the Ohio Achievement Test, Algebra Prognosis Test, and week-long Terra Nova testing.
Wanted your opinion on this, our district pushes students to use calculators, I on the other hand don't allow students to use them very often b/c they don't know 6 x 9 w/o a calculator. Once I feel they comprehand the concepts, I then allow calculators.
The biggest problem I see in MS is that it seems teachers don't make students memorize their multiplication tables anymore. Without that, they can't divide in their head or very effectively reduce fractions.
It's very frustrating.![]()
