Math Autobiography

Hopefully the activities in the lesson "Shared Math Experience" have stirred up some thoughts on your experiences learning math. Write a math autobiography summing up some of your thoughts and feeling about learning math. There are links to some examples on the left. Here are a few questions to think about:

1. What is your earliest memory of math?
2. Have you ever enjoyed math? Describe what that was like.
3. Did learning math changed as you go older?
4. Do you think other students have the same struggle as you do?
5. How have your experiences shaped your attitude towards learning math?

These questions are prompts to help you think about how to write your own thoughts. You may use all, some or none of the questions.

Use the comments box to add your autobiography to this post.
