Modular arithmetic

Coming into college is very stressful for all incoming Freshman. We all worry about what we are going to wear, who we are going to hang-out with, or how we are going to make it through a long four years. With all of this going through their minds, it is hard to keep organized when all we want to do after classes is sleep and eat. One of the most beneficial topics, in my opinion, in USC class is the ability to manage time. Managing time seems to be a very easy idea, however, it seems to be much harder when physically faced with different choices to plan out ones day. Throughout, my entire life, I have been through numerous activities and sessions that provide information on how to attack life and the best strategies to ease our way through school and they were successful.

College, on the other hand, has revealed itself to be much more challenging as the test incorporate much more information. Therefore, the use of an agenda has been a…

Not many people can say that they’re adopted; but a small percentage is, and I’m lucky enough to be one of them. My mom and dad had split before I was born, leaving my mom to run to my divorced grandpa for help when she was expecting me. He took care of us, but despite these things, my mom never compared to the parent that my grandpa was for me. She struggled with drugs and alcohol, often taking her anger out on me physically when no one was around. After drifting in and out of my life for those…

I never thought that I would be sitting on top of a washing machine waiting for my clothes to dry while at the same time, writing a shitty first draft essay. It’s amazing where education can take you. In my first semester of composition, I read “Brainology” by Carol S. Dweck and “The Student Fear Factor” by Rebecca Cox.

I am currently a student and Mason City High School. I am a sophomore right now. My freshman year was a good year. I started hanging out with a different crowd my freshman year.

My freshman year I had a couple new classes like Business with Mr. Christopherson and Spanish with Mrs. Axdahl. Half way through the second semester I joined a…

the students are able to view each number in a different way while “keeping track”(p.5). The article gives many examples of ways teachers can apply the conceptual subitizing method to the classroom with activities and games the students will enjoy. My take away, for my future classroom is the ten-frame activity. Ten frames can be use in the classroom to visualize addition combinations. This activity will also “assist students with mental handicaps and learning disabilities as they learn to…
