Math Class


I love math class. Math is just so amazing, especially with Mrs. Granlitch. I also just love the ALEKS program. Math class is the most fun time of day.

Mrs. Granlitch makes Math class so much more enjoyable. Whenever Mrs. Granlich is in the room math just becomes awesome than before. She hates me because of my sister. Just because my sister hated you, it doesn’t mean I’m evil. Ms. Granlitch, you have started a war that can’t be won. Last year she wouldn’t even talk to me, but now she’s happy to. Especially when she is yelling at me for no reason. Last semester I was teaching my friend a problem and he was understanding the problem and he was getting the topic correct when I was showing him, but Ms. Granlitch scolded me to go back to my seat and stop talking to my friend. Then Ms. Granlitch tries teaching my friend. The first thing she says to him is
“Ok Christian, Umm I like to remember this topic by Hippopotamus.”
What Ms Granlitch? I looked at my friend with a confused look and he looked back at me with the same confused look. Then Ms. Granlitch thinks she has the right answer, but nope she got it wrong. She got it wrong two more times after that then she laughed and walked away.

This semester I was sitting by a bunch of friends and we were talking, but we were also helping each other. I helped three of my friends master four topics each, and my weekly goal for topics were complete so nothing was wrong with talking because we were accomplishing our tasks. Then Ms. Granlitch walks over and yells at me to move. Of all seven of us she just tells me to move. So I did move, but I moved to the chair that was about three inches away from me.
“ Umm Alex, I told you to move.” said Ms. Ganlitch. To which I replied
“I did move. You just watched me.”
Then she threatened to send me to the principal’s office and write me up unless I moved. I didn’t want Ms. Granlitch to win this round, but I also didn’t want to suffer the consequences. I then moved across the room, but as soon as I sat down I moved right back. The entire time I was moving from place to place I looked straight at Ms. Granlitch. As I moved back to my original spot she just rolled her eyes at me and walked away.    

After that class She scolded me and told me that I couldn’t sit next to my friends ever again. The next day I went and sat right by my friends. Now we have assigned seats and you aren’t allowed to talk to anybody. Whenever I go to math class I feel like I’m in a sweat shop now. Just sitting doing the exact same thing not allowed to talk. Ms. Granlitch gets mad at me when I’m not working on math, but the reason I’m not working is because I don’t know how to do any topics. Ms. Granlitch and all other teachers are always to busy doing something else and I can’t ask anybody how to do a topic because talking isn’t allowed. Also the ALEKS program doesn't make any sense when it tries to explain a topic to you. I absolutely resent math class with a passion.
