Response/Answers to questions in first blog.

I am taking AP calculus because I really like math. I am still very unsure about what I want to take in college but I think no matter what I take this class will benefit me in the future.

From this class I want to learn and I want to have a challenge but at the same time I don't want to feel like I have hit a brick wall as far as math goes and what I am able to understand. I really just want to have a class in which I feel proud of myself when I finish it because I know I worked hard to get there.

I want support from my classmates when I need it and hopefully I am able to return the favor. I want to work in the class so I am hoping we can all stay on task and I won't be distracted. I want to be able to go to my classmates for help when I need it and I want them to be able to approach me as well.

I want the teacher to help me out when I am asking questions but I don't want the work to be done for me. I am really bad at asking for help when I am too lazy to figure something out myself even though I know I can do it on my own (you will see that soon Mr. A haha). Hopefully we can work together to help me get a 5 on the A.P.

So far I think the class has been good. At first I felt a little intimidated but on the third day I felt a lot better about where we were going and what we were doing. I really like the class dynamic we have going on and I really like the way the class is organized. Hopefully the year will continue like this.
