Welcome to the 7th grade math website of Mrs. Smith. I am teaching my fifth year of Academic math and Pre-Algebra. I enjoy teaching middle school kids and watching their growth in such a developmental stage. Having been a frustrated middle school student who thought "I will never get it", I understand where many of my students are at. I believe math can be achieved by anyone who puts their mind to it - there is no such thing as people who "just don't get math." There is more than one way to achieve a solution, more than one way to learn a strategy, but thankfully only one logical answer. That is what I appreciate about Algebra and mathematics in general, and I hope to pass on this appreciation.

Math can be an interesting and exciting subject, even for the faint of heart. We use math everday to figure time, handle money, estimate measurments and so on.
