There was no project or assignment for this subject but I can tell you, I kind of enjoyed the positivity of this class. There was a lot of comedy throughout the time and we had many laughs. This subject was most important to me because it made me think smart on how to solve challenging problems. Although I wasn't able to meet my math teacher in person, I would just want to say that I appreciate the hard work he put into this class.

My favorite assignment...
I chose this assignment because it involved a lot of typing and as you can see, I love typing since I got a new keyboard.
