Why I hate maths.
By Angelica-Rose.
Okay, hear me out. I struggle with remembering my times tables, because I can’t really just sit there and remember it.
Other thing, I’m also not really good at it because…
When I first came to St Bernadettes school, they put me in the same age group. Before I went to St Bernadettes school, I went to a Filipino school. Of course being a child and living in Papua New Guinea for almost my whole childhood. I cannot understand a single thing, except Filipino class where they spoke english. But I can’t focus very well either because I had Procrastination (even now).
Okay now, my past teachers said ‘Math is simple because it only has one answer. Unlike reading and writing’. Yeah, but it’s way easier if you get to put in your own answer, right?
Plus some people are just born to know math easily. Like they could become a Math Mathematician! Also I tend to forget things at school, and only at school, it's really random too.
Hi Angel its me tiff!
ReplyDeleteI like math but the question is what does "Procrastination" mean?

Hello, Tiffany!
DeleteSorry, but as you can see I competely hate math. Procrastination means, lemme make a scenario.
You have to take out the trash, but instead of doing that you do something else.
So when it's time for maths, I draw on my paper and wait out ma-hs.

Kia ora Angel,

It was really interesting reading your thoughts on math. Thank you for sharing!
I can imagine that not being fluent in the language you are taught in would get in the way of math, especially word problems. I saw this last year with my own students.
I also found math much trickier than English when I was in school. Something I have learnt as a teacher is that nobody is born to be "bad" at math (I promise!). Everyone has the ability to improve, which is really awesome.
Keep at it and believe in yourself! You are a mathematician.
Ngā mihi,
Charlotte
