1. Nonso Elelleh (11) is shown writing down decimals on the whiteboard in her math class. She happily grins, finding the answer to a problem that she had been working on. When asked, she told me that she “enjoys math”.
2. Benjamin Veghte (11) is shown talking with his Precalculus Honors teacher, Mrs. Faisal. They are working together to solve a tricky math problem. Christina Cheng (9), a fellow peer, said, “I like that math always has one answer and is less open to interpretation.”
3. Benjamin Veghte (11) takes a break from solving difficult precalculus problems, to look at the camera. Cheerful, he makes a face before returning to his work.
4. Brennan Birn (11) and Milan Pandey (11) work together to solve their homework in their Precalculus class. They prevail through troubling problems with smiles on their faces and calculators in their hands. In their math class, they are
currently learning about logs and exponentials. A fellow classmate, Christina Cheng (9) told me that, “we do a lot of group work, around once or twice a week.” Group work is a great time to not only spend time with their peers but also learn and understand new topics.
5. Christine Li (9) and Christina Cheng (9) collaborate and solve their math assignment together. They are shown in their Precalculus Honors class, concentrating thoroughly on their work. I asked Christina what she liked most about math, and she responded, “Math is logical and methodical, but at the same time, interesting, like a puzzle.”
