More on Posting for Points

ATTENTION!! VERY IMPORTANT!!
If you are trying to get extra points by making comments, you need to add your comments to the appropriate class date. There is a HIGH probability that if you post your comments on an older entry (like the original posting for points), you won't get credit. I check the posts on a weekly basis to give points, and if you post on something older, it won't be counted.

Hello Mr Fjelstrom, Today we started working on multiplying polynomials and I learned the vertical method. Lining up the different powers of x's so that the same powers fall above and below eachother. You also showed us how to use 0 as a placeholder. I loved "the CLAW" by the way!

Taking this last year most of the things that we are learning is review to me, but what I like most about your classes are the tests. In Mr. Harding's class last year (not bashing Mr. Harding) he had word problem tests and I found it difficult to apply knowledge that we learned out of the book to word problems that we didn't do very often. I do much better on tests that are similar to the homework and benchmarks since those are what we work on.
