Answer these four questions in complete sentences.
1. Do you feel like the tests have been reasonably challenging? If they are challenging to you, what makes them challenging? If they are not challenging to you, what types of problems would make them more challenging?
2. Do you feel like you have been adequately prepared for these tests by Mr. Jobe? Explain why or why not.
3. What has been your favorite part about math class so far? What has been your least favorite part?
4. What suggestions do you have to improve this class?
1. I think the test is sometimes challenging however if I study for the test it is easy. Questions that are not multiple choice and problem solving is hard.
ReplyDelete2. No, because I still have a question to ask him.
3. The best part of math is
4. I don't think I have a suggestion.
3. the best part of math is when we review for the test, we do games and competition.
ReplyDelete1. I think the tests are just right for me, it's not easy nor is it hard, and so even though I understand the material, I always end up making careless mistakes.
ReplyDeleteSome of the tests are hard, and some are easy, when the test is hard, that means that I didn't review the material as much as I should've and when the test is easy, that means I absolutely know the material.
2. I always review my homework and redo the problems I got wrong before a test, so I feel like I am prepared for the test. However I think I should as Mr. Jobe the questions that I am unsure of.
3. My favorite part is when Mr. Jobe uses students as examples, and working in partners. I also like the classwork assignment that Mr. Jobe assigns. The assignment where he assigns a certain section to do and when the students are done, they have to go up to Mr. Jobe to get it checked.
4. The class itself is very fun and so I am always excited to go to Algebra class, however I think we are moving a little too quickly through the chapters and so I think we should slow down a little because sometimes I get lost.
1. I think think the test was challenging because the word problems are kind of difficult for me.
ReplyDelete2. Yes, because I have reviewed for the test.
3. My favorite part of math class was taking the test. My least favorite part was doing problem solving.
4. I think we should have more reviews and work sheet for the Test.
1. I personally think the tests are kind of challenging but sometimes it isn't if I study for the test very well. It makes them challenging because if you don't study good enough then you wouldn't know the answers on the test which would make it hard and challenging for you. For me, I think that word problems are quite challenging because you have to read the whole story and make it into an equation or something. Calculations are much more easier.
ReplyDelete2. Yes and no, because sometimes I don't know some of the questions even though we have been through it during class, but some of them I understand very well. I think I should be more prepared for tests and study more so that I can fully understand the questions that I don't know and ask Mr. Jobe about it if I don't know it.
3. My favorite part was when we played review games in groups. I think it is fun to work as a group.
4. I don't really have suggestions. I think our class is good the way it is right now.
1. I felt that the test was quite challenging because it was very hard to do the Word questions because I had to change the English a mathematical problem to solve. I thought other questions were easy because we already learnt about in the class
ReplyDelete2. I think so because all the classwork that we did in the class was to study for the test.
3. My favorite part of math class was the not boring way that the teacher teaches. Least favorite was how we were supposed to learn all the properties.
4. I have absolutely no problems with the Algebra class but it would be good if we had less things to work on
1. I think the test was kind of challenging because some question i didn't understand some question fully and the steps you had to do was confusing
ReplyDelete2. Kind of because i did study and there were some questions from the problem that i studied but there were some questions that i didn't study.
3. My favorite part is solving just simple questions and my least favorite is learning about property
4. Solving more examples of what we learned that day
1) I think the test was reasonably hard, not too hard, not to easy, pretty fair. There were some questions that were somewhat confusing because there were a lot of numbers having to multiply with other set of the numbers within the equation, as well as negative signs. The easy ones were the ones that were basic questions, the basic questions were easy because the basic questions consisted basic things about the chapter which you had to know to solve the other questions in the test. I think it would make it definitely hard if you added more variables with fractions with negative signs with specific parenthesis.
ReplyDelete2) I think I was pretty prepared for the test, having to review over the classwork and the homework that applied to what was on the test as well as extra questions in the text book that I went over. Also in class, we always went over the homework that we didn't quit catch or understand as well as the classwork. We also had a lot of classwork which consisted difficult and easy questions. We also went over the basic fundamental of the chapter.
3) My favorite and the least favorite part of the math class is everything because the things we do in class are not very exciting, but not dreading. Everything is fairly fun and helpful, but can't call them exactly fun. However, I really liked it when Mr.Jobe use people for examples.
4) To improve the class we should all turn off the AC because our brains are cold and we have no clothing for our brains. I think this class is perfect, it is fun and educational
1. I think the tests have been fairly challenging compared to my expectations of the test level I thought would be before the semester. I thought the word problems made the tests more challenging because even if you know the methods, its hard to put the numbers in the formula when the problems are mentioned in different examples.
ReplyDelete2. I thought I was prepared because I figured out all the thing I didn't know, by the explanations that Mr. Jobe said through class.
3. The favorite part of class was playing games and creating different projects making it easier for us to understand some new thing.
4. I think I am satisfied with what we do currently in class. Maybe some improvement in activities or how we should solve more problems in the book instead of doing one or two problems per page.
Thanks for the input, guys. I really appreciate your honesty and the thoughtfulness most of you put into answering these questions. Feedback is vital for a successful class. Something tells me that this is going to be a great year...
ReplyDelete1). I think test was okay but but quiet challenging. There was lot questions solving problems
ReplyDelete2). No because we just watched presentation and did work from text book. I didn't get chance to learn all the things from Mr.Jobe. But I learned main staffs from mr.Jobe.
3). My favorite part is to do game about math problems, just solving text book problem is kind of boring.
4). we need some for reviews and games that make math really fun
1: Yes the tests are challenging. They are difficult because you must be accurate yet quick with all your problems.
ReplyDelete2: Yes, I feel prepared for my tests because we always do reviews so I know I understand the material.
3: My favorite part about math was when I got candy with Gavin during the review. I didn't like it when I didn't get a candy on one of the first days.
4:I think that the class is good enough and the ways Mr.Jobe is teaching is great
1. I think some of the word problems on the tests were challenging. Maybe you could make it more simpler by deleting some word problems~.
ReplyDelete2. Yes I think so, because I take math tutor.
3. I liked the integers adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing, because I have already learned them, and they seemed less hard. The least favorite were the Mathematical Properties, because it was hard to memorize it.
4. Maybe if we did games (about what we are learning), we could study in class in a more fun way, and the things we learn will get stuck in our head very well, because of excitement.
