I will talk about how about learning Programming and the importance of practicing Mathematics.

This Summer I went to SMU Science Camp and to El Centro College Technology Module for youth. Today I learned about programming using Alice system computer based software to develop Computer Programs. This educational software showed to program 3D Robotic Animation by using 3D figures and how to drag boxes into the main box I liked the part when I made the figure move.

I’ve learned that Alice is a program for building virtual words populated 3D objects. I’ve worked with different areas such as: World window, the Object Tree, the details area, editors area, and events. There are about 40 steps for how to use programming Alice interface.

Learning mathematics is easy and important for children so we clould apply in different fields such as: calculating Income Taxes,purchasing toys, and in the future will help us to get a challenging jobs using their potential math skills. Also, the practice of Math will make you smarter, faster, and more receptive to learn new skills. I think, learning subjects such as: math, writing, multiplication is fun and should increase our critical thinking.

Programming and Math are very important to children because they will become smarter all around the world or if they don’t go to school, and take time to study, or learn computer science they would not become skilled at complex thinking. I think is better studying instead not doing anything and playing video games.

Therefore, learning math thus programming is fun and easy instead of playing video games, watching T.V. , those activities they make you crazy and math makes you gentle, polite, smart. I like math & programming because it helps you think better.
