Math
Yearly Goal: To understand mathematical concepts, and being successful in applying them.
Quarter 1
This quarter in maths we continued learning about exponential laws, and got introduced to logarithms. Though I found it difficult in the beginning to understand what I was doing, and the methods used. After a while I got the hang of my it, by understanding and memorizing the formulas. Despite this several of the grades I got for the tests still only reached the average grade. I wish to improve my understanding of this subject. by memorizing the methods use to calculate and find the solution for certain equations. By doing so I would be able to improve my marks for maths in the quarters to come.

Logarithms Quiz
CHOSEN WORK
The work I have chosen for this quarter in maths, is the logarithms quiz, since it is the work I have so far been most successful in throughout this quarter. For this quiz, I have been able to successfully get one of the highest marks I have ever obtained for maths. My success came by being able to understand and memorize the formulas of exponentials and logarithms. By understanding and memorizing the formulas I was able to understand the question, and know the appropriate way to solve them without facing difficulty. However there were still several questions within the end, where I had difficulty understanding the way, but was eventually able to do it.
IMPROVEMENTS
One of the main things I want to improve next time in my quiz is to advance my understandings of the formulas used, and being able to memorize and apply them when facing complexed math problems. This improvement doesn't only count for the quiz but also for everything else in maths. If I would be able to improve my understandings of the formulas and memorize them well. I am able to answer any type of math question, without facing a lot of difficulty. I would like to achieve this improvement by increasing the time I spent on studying maths, and challenging my self to do more difficult math problems. By doing so I am able to apply whatsoever math formulas I am studying, have the ability to solve unfamiliar and complexed problems, and face less difficulty when doing this subject.
KEY CONCEPT: RELATIONS
In maths we have been learning about logarithms and exponents which is based on relations, since we learned how the two are related to one another, and how to solve daily life problems with them. We learned on how we were able to use both the relations between exponents and logarithms by solving math problems, and by finding the relations between the formulas. We learned how the formulas were related, and how we could apply those formulas in math problems to find the solution.
