For this unit, I felt as though it went easier than the last unit. After that last unit, I had scattered thoughts of knowing how to do things. I came in and got the help I needed to organize my thoughts. With my thoughts organized and my test corrections done and turned in, my grade got better. And with my grade better, I felt a lot more confident coming into class and I had the mindset that I couldn't get that behind in my mind or with my work. In this, I kept up well on the work this unit and came in with questions if I had any. Learning in the Quadratics unit was a lot easier for me than the last unit. I didn't really have a muddy point. Something I learned was that with the equation (-b/2a), you can find the "x" of the vertex and plug the "x" back in to find the "y" of the vertex and use that to find the maximum/minimum of a quadratic equation. We then connected it to writing equations and finding the "a" value of a quadratic. The work last unit wasn't what killed me. It was the fact that I let myself get behind. This unit, to me, was pretty fun!
