For the first nine weeks I’ve learned a lot of new stuff. I can add and subtract negative numbers, -5+7=2, 5-8=-3. I can multiply and divide negative numbers, -3×2=-6. I can perform the distributive property, 24+36 change it as 12x(2+3). I can combine like terms, 2t+2+1=+2t+3. I can evaluate exponents, 3^3/3^-9=3^12. Then simplifying expressions using exponents kinda confuses me but I’m getting better at it. Overall I give myself a B for this nine weeks because I’m understanding most the things we are learning about.
