I would like to share my top 3 favorite forms in math. My favorite form is vertical form, my second favorite is chip model and my third favorite is place value disks. I like vertical from the best because it is a easier and faster way to figure out the problem. I learned vertical form with my mom, Dad and second grade teacher Ms. Ishida. Vertical form helps me by being more knowledgeable in math. I like chip model second because it is really easy. You just have to draw dots on a place value chart. I learned with my second grade teacher. Chip model helps me because it is really easy and it saves a lot of time and all you need to do is to draw and count. I like place value disks because you write 1, 10 or 100 and circle it. Ms. Ishida my second grade teacher taught me it. Place value disks helps me by just having to add up the numbers. I shared my 3 favorite. Now I would like to hear your top three favorites. I would also like to hear who taught you. 

I would like to share my story about math with you. I started math when I was 4 years old I started in preschool. When I grew up, my Dad taught my match above my level like 1,506+345=1,851. The methods I have learned are vertical form, chip model, mental match, tent strategy, place value disks, word form, using fingers and place value. When I was little I learned simple Addition like 1+2=2, 2+2=4, 3+3=6 and 5+5=10. When I was a little older I learned subtraction like 10-8=2, 10-7=3, 10-6=4, 10-5=5, 10-4=6 and 10-3=7. When I was older I learned time table. I learned match with my Dad, Mom and teachers. I wrote this paragraph so you can know my story about math. I think I am good at math because I know a lot. I think I accomplished a lot in math. I think I need to practice my time table more. I hope you enjoyed my story about math and I would like to hear your story.

I did a good research about Simone Biles. She started gymnastics as soon as she could walk. She started the Olympics at the age of 19. Simone had a sister that was 17 that was also good at gymnastics. Simone Biles had to be home schooled through high school in order to train. Biles trained 32 hours a week to prepare for Rio Olympics. She won 2016 Olympic Gold Medal including floor and vault. Biles had the same coach since 8 years old. I think Simone Biles is a excellent gymnast. I think Biles is a very flexible gymnast and she has very good tumbling. In my opinion I am a good gymnast because I am in Level 2. I hope you enjoyed learning some facts about Simone Biles.

I did a interesting research about Michelle Kwan. Michelle Kwan was born 1980 in Torrance, California. Her ethic is Chinese and her parents were from Hong Kong. Michelle Kwan started skating at the age of 5 and went to Ice Castle Training Center in Lake Arrowhead in California. She was 18 years old when she went to the Olympics games. Michelle Kwan liked to skate a lot. I think Michelle Kwan has good performance because she is calm and relaxed. I think Kwan is a good ice skater because she made it all the way to the Olympics games. I think i am a good ice skater because i am in Basic 6. I would like to learn how to ice skate like Kwan. I learned some interesting facts about Michelle Kwan and I would like to accomplish something like her.
