Mathematics

Maths is so dumb
And so hard to understand
Time to run when you reach the classroom, and don’t forget to yell out
HELP!
Equations seems so stupid
Multiplication and division are way too hard
Addition and subtraction are also hard
Time and tallies are okay
I couldn’t care less about maths
Close the textbook
Stop right now!1

Author notes

This is a poem that I had to write for TAFE once about what Maths meant to me.

  • This.. I can definitely relate too. Words cannot express how much I despise Maths, especcially graphs, and angles.
    It's so awful that Maths is compulsury. I cannot wait to leave high school and maths behind.

      I was so bad in maths so as soon as I chose my subjects for year 11 and 12, the first subject I ditched was maths. A lot of people said that I was a very smart person for dropping the subject and they all wished that they did the same.

        I'm required to take math for my general education courses so I couldn't get out of it. It wouldn't be so bad if I could get some help but no one will help me so i'm just trying to keep myself at a passing grade... despise math, who needs to know any of the things in algebra or trig anyway?

    Well, I have to say that primary is a bit more easier. And I'm in primary so I don't know what will happen when I'm older. Well, I remembered when my dad taught me maths for 2 whole hours. And that was really boring. maths.

      Maths does get harder when you reach high school. I was that bad at it and it got so hard that I chose not to do in year 11 and year 12 which I heard is even harder. A lot of people said that I was actually smart for not choosing maths and they end up wishing that they could do the same thing.

      Although, I have no idea what you do in China but I'm pretty sure that it would be hard there too.

    Maths is hard because teachers don't care. It can be interesting if you look at it individually. I think it is dull, but what do i know?
