Algebra Cooperative Groups Are In Now

COOPERATIVE MATH GROUPS ARE ESSENTIAL IN LEARNING AND TEACHING THE SUBJECT OF ALGEBRA






Ratio, Proportion, Similar, Cross multiply Theorems

Linear Equations; Functions, Slope, Similar, Congruent,

Tools, Angle, measuring

   parallel lines

Ratio and Proportion

Similar triangles=

same angles;  different size

Ratio

angles are relative to lines

3d prisms Order of Operation

Cube, 3d, polygon sides


Groups Are Essential For Success in Algebra

Just Look at it, your brain is ready do the rest. It's spiritual.
No matter who you are , this is where you are headed. Algebra will be looking you in your face. The hardest part is just getting used to looking back at it (symbols and words /algebra language how you write mathematics). For one thing, it is very hard on the eyes. so look lightly. Let your eyes know that you care enough not to look to hard.  Remember these symbols and the words built in to the words are  like little  email addresses, they mean something specific, type one letter incorrectly and even though it's right, its wrong. But unless your trying to know how much fuel you need on your trip to the moon, you will get a chance to correct. (You could run out of gas on your way to Vegas though d=rt.) You are the only judge for your own algebra self. Some people like to impress that they know the symbols, but you can look them up, like being on a easter egg hunt. I would use a journal and keep an art profile and learn the words by spelling them over,  Don't forget, this stuff is not made to do alone.  If you are going to love it, you will do it in a group in which no one is wrong, just out spoken: verbalize, verbalize verbalize. Turn your nose up at show offs. Give them the room that they need. Find your own path. YOU WIN, CAUSE YOU  ROCK! I love yall. Peace. Really I do or I wouldn't be lookin' at all this algebra. So Just LOOK Back at it; turn your head, then look again. Most importantly, let it roll off your back. Take a break. Trust in the fact that there is algebra inside us all from birth or before. Just like LOVE.

There are always only 4 choices  multiply divide add subtract.  Concentrate primarily on the language. It is designed to fool you. Like any new language use it or lose it. Force it on your friends until you drive them away for good.
Understanding the order of the universe:Patterns. FIND THEM.What to do First? Second? Third?....Dance

Algebra problem
- 2.172 < -2.17 would this be correct? Please help I'm on my 2nd go around in a college class I failed the first one.

Unknown said...

Your'e are saying that .722 is more than .72, I agree because .722 is closer to .73 than is .72. i agree with you Ms. Rachel. Talk it through.Talking it through is more important than getting the right answer, (unless it's on their test.

I can't see the problem when I type.I promise you will not fail this time. But promise me that you won't forget to breathe. Breathing is key. Most teachers won't tell you that they failed three times before passing with a D. I'm going to hook you up. I believe in you. You can and you will do this. Breathe. Believe in me. I got you. First of all, algebra is the same math that you learned in fourth grade. It just should have been introduced first. Algebra is a universal language. You must define each and every terms which includes it's symbols, if our spoken everyday language, we may skip a comma, but not in algebra. If we do we crash You have four choices you will ad sub multiply or divide. algebra must be spoken, best with three or more joined together. By now you have had your foreign language. treat your algebra education the same way. study it. speak it. I want you to look at some visuals. I will be back to you. It will be fun. open the left side of your brain. look at Genesis 11. Get ready to breeze through. Make algebra your own. It is difficult to write the problem because you must be exact. when you need to, spell it out for clarity. Good Luck. God Bless you and your family too. We rise together. Ge me your email so you will follow up with a group on my gmail. ht

concentrate on on one spec at a time. It is saying something to you. but what. If you breathe you won't freeze. Keep looking from visual to visual. Look at problem like a story. Is it telling you, for instance, that something has to be smaller than something to fit in the hole or maybe a socket. think of male and female plugs, maybe, one needs to be X amount some amount larger and the other Y any number think or object needs to be smaller but which one is it.. You are fortunate to have vocabulary to think about what you want to ask. Arm yourself with a dictionary. Breathe and define all terms and symbols. try to form problem into real life and you will win. Most of all concentrate on verbalizing. It's ok because. I will need your questions to help others to verbalize. Remember dear we all ris together. Algebra is the language of the natural (spiritual order of things. You will find that one concept has many words to confuse. but with understanding the concept the words and symbols won't freeze you you. breathe

Unknown said...

Thank you soo much for your reply...yes this is on a quiz... I just freez up on this. I will take your advice and Breathe. There are so many rules do you know of a way to make them easier to remember? Thank you again Be Blessed!!!

study it like you do anything else spelling test thesaurus definitions, just like in fourth grade look at it like art. The things I say will make sense. It is the discussion that brings it to your heart. There you find the answers. When Iraq was invaded they found the original algebra tablets (stone age). This is the oldest communication. Nothing new but hidden but to kings and queens. You are a queen. Your doing it the best way by studying it and not cheating to pass. It is easier to cheat. You're just not opting for that. It is better to just digest it. Keep searching, queen. Don't you wish algebra had a spell check. They do it is called a calculator. or let them eat cake. I promise you Breathe, even if you need to close your eyes. Gen:11. oops no prayer in school. At least there is in congress. I am blessed. You are too. picaso paints algebra mozart writes it. you will too. study and read the language, each has a picture. you have my permission to use your own words. Its not the words it is the communication the measuring mul divide add subtract. There is no end. How long does it take to travel to moms house how long does it take to reach the moon d=rt? trnaslate. and you will pass.

Thanks for asking. learn your symbols like you learn your name. do you know your lines like spiderman: adjacent transversal parallel; shapes: quadrilaterals polygons angles. relax there are oly so many questions. Talk the language whenever you can. Like any other language that's how you learn. It is a language. The oldest known. Graphing is like third grade connect the dots. Don't let people fake you out with words. You got this!

Try to measure your problem on the number line. Mostly when I say something. It is to direct your thinking vision. It will all come together. Do your best. it is quite good enough?

use colors because colors affect the target area (lazy or unused area of the brain that we need to bring alive. or to stimulate. Pretty soon it wont' hurt any more. Colors stimulate or (to use your words which are a perfect analogy or metaphor) unfreeze the necessary portion of the brain you need to pass the tests when put be fore you. Check your eyes. With Excercise, physical both sides of the brain will work iin sync.

they are no different it's called relativity look for relativity in algebra process, not hard times. what is relative? at the end there is a switch from minus (neg) to positive visa versa. which is a normal occurrence. look closely closer, breathe, don't psyche yourself out. instead you look, ask yourself out loud what is happening. let yourself answer. equality equation inequality. order of operations. respond

Unknown said...

Algebra Works
O yeah, google images for inequality just like you would if you were writing a paper. respond

you know how you flip fractions to multiply. you flipp inequalities at the end if negative. I'm saying this to make (require) your thought. I will share your notes in the future to help show how you need a group to get a handle on algebra. It is not a one man sport.

Rachel Williams Gordy
Thank you I will. I just checked my grade I have an 85.89 wooo hooo I'm sooo happy.

maybe just one a day, you may have to write them out if you can't make symbols on your machine., whenever.They may look like word problems.
