This unit helped me improve my communication skills by teaching me new vocabulary words for math. These terms may be useful when I am trying to give an explanation to someone who may not understand a math problem. I also have learned how to communicate transformations in other ways (ex: mapping language). I improved my critical thinking by learning how to analyze the problem, whether it’s a graph or an equation, in order to find what transformations have been applied. I improved my creative thinking by being open to new strategies, such as mapping language, that can help me to visualize the transformation in my head in order to reduce the time it would usually take me to sketch a transformation.
