Math Questions

1. I like playing Factor Captor because it is fun and it helps me learn prime and composite numbers very easily. It can also be very challenging, if you use the highest numbers. In all I like playing Factor Captor because it is challenging, Fun, and helps me learn my prime and composite numbers.


2. If you make an array it can help find all different ways to get a certain number. for an example, if you need to find all the factors of 36 you can start with a number and either work up or down like this: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
I
. . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . .

And you could go on for a long time. Arrays can also be described by two factors just put into dots. It can also hep you right it out when you need to ex plane something. That is why I think that using arrays is a good way to explain/ show your factors for a certain number.


3. I liked the unit when we worked on the prime and composite numbers. I liked that unit because of two things. One is that I liked working out to find multiples of numbers and to find numbers that are only a multiple of one and them self, in other words a prime number. At the beginning of the unit I did not even know what a composite number was. The second reason is the unit was filled with fun. We learned the games: Factor Captor, Math Baseball, Bingo with prime and composite numbers.

That is why I liked the prime and composite number unit.

Writing= ice cream. but editing=blah

Writing: I like to write because it is fun. It is also the one and only subject that I can tell about my life and express my feelings. In writing this year I hope to get better at revising and word chose. I love to write and type my writing. For writing last year I wrote a lot about my cabin in the states and I think it was because I was kind of home sick. This year I hope to become a great writer and I have already wrote a couple pieces from my cabin. I use memories from my cabin for writing because I think that I can really express my feelings, and tell about my many adventures that I have had. For an example for the letter I wrote to Mr. Daw I wrote about my friend Ben and I when we went fishing.

Editing: The only part of writing that I would say I dislike is the editing stage. I know that it is really important that I learn how to be a great editor even though I don't think it is that fun. The reason I don't really like editing is that you don't really write.



That is why I love to write but so much editing.
