Math Club Reflections

Math club is one of the best things in school. (That doesn't involve work, that is.) In math club, we solve math problems using manipulitives, such as; fraction tiles, chalkboards, and the whiteboard. We also worked in groups or with a partner. Math club involves, well, FUN, FUN, FUN!!! And the best thing is we get treats and cheer charts after we do math club. YUMMY! Math club is the best!

At first I thought Math Club would be boring but I was wrong! Math Club has got to be one of the best programs in my class. I really enjoy math club because I get to work with manipulatives and that is a great thing for me because I am a kinesthetic learner which means I like to touch and think about what I'm doing with rods or pattern blocks. Every time we go to Math Club, we get 4 cheer charts just for coming and we also get treats for answering hard questions.

Math club is awesome because almost every kid in our class is in it. I noticed when the other kids and I went in math club it made us smarter and helped us to follow directions. It also made math fun. I enjoyed writing questions up on the board even if I got them wrong because I learn from my mistakes. I also like to listen to different techniques other people use. I look forward to going to Math Club because of course Mrs. Rudderham is in it and we get to solve fun math questions. Mrs. Rudderham made math fun and took it to a whole new level.

I love math club because it helped me to understand math way better! I can now tackle anything because of the time Mrs. Rudderham took to help A LOT of her students to understand math better! Before math club, I didn't understand math very well! But now it comes easy peazy! In one math club she helped us get ahead of the other students that weren't in it! Our last math club Mrs. Rudderham helped us to do like 4 divided by 300 and the students not in math club didn't know how to do that yet. It was nice to be ahead! I also like math club because we get to work with different people in teams or as two big teams. I want to say thank you to Mrs. Rudderham because she took two lunch periods a week out of her time to spend with us to help us understand math! I am never going to get stuck again. But now math club is over but I can still ask my teacher when I don't understand. At the end of every math club, we get cheercharts...4 cheercharts! So for all you teachers out there that are reading this, you should think about doing a math club because it helps us (students) to understand math way better!

Math club is a great way to learn more about math and to get better at some problems like fractions, long multipication, long division. Math club is fun because we get to use manipulatives and talk about the problems and we also get at least 4 cheer charts and treats when we are done! Before Math club, I wasn't very good at math, but now I just go flyin' through math. One time Micheal was my partner for long multipication and we were ahead of everyone by 3 points and we lost that game! That was almost like... ...MATH CURSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you are reading this and you are NOT, from St. Matthew School, please contact your teacher and tell him or her that your class should do Math Club and shout: MATH CLUB RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that math club improved my math skills. It helped me when I worked with other people and helped me understand the new program MATH MAKES SENSE. Math club made doing math fun instead of work. I was able to get further in my cheer charts because of math club and I was able to help other people. I liked it because I got to see other people's ideas as well as my own. Math club ROCKS, Mrs.
Rudderham and I think you should do it for a couple more years. It also gets you to use the different stratigies. Math Club rocks my socks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that math club has really improved my math skills a lot because we used fractions tiles and I really got to know fractions more. We also did a lot with math questions like 54 divided by 5 = 50 R4. No problem all because of math club. I had a lot a fun doing really easy questions that were a little hard but they made me think a lot. Now that I did math club it's really easy to do math now that it Makes Sense. Mrs. Rudderham might be a little old but she thinks of really fun things!
