Honors Experience
Honors this year was positive! I'm really glad I pushed myself to take math honors. It was just extra work, challenging math packets and more questions on tests. It felt right, and I made the right decision choosing honors and pushing to do extra work, because it improved my work ethic.
Learning about myself
During the honors project, I learned I really love math sometimes. My project was proving the are of a circle, through the area of a triangle. I painted an oil piece and color coordinated important aspects of this problem Still, i'm really proud of that piece and every time somebody asks me about it, or are confused looking at it, I get excited. I get chills every time I finish explaining why it makes sense. I really love it.
Suggestions
Suggestions to improve honors would be meetings every now and then to check in, give announcement and catch up. At times, I forgot I was in honors and wondered what was next. Having these meet ups, even for 5 or 10 minutes during lunch or class would help re-assure students, and catch them up.
