  FRACTIONS Oh, beloved fractions! The denominators bless me, the numerators make me light, Words can’t describe how good you are. Powerful, delightful,  Fractions. Unstoppable  fractions, with your amazing numbers, additional fractions, dividing fractions! If I can feel fractions with my hands I would’ve given you a hug! Numbers fly above my mind, keeping my mind calm and fresh, beautiful beautiful fractions, taking charge of math, marching every problem for me, fractions, the leader of denominators and numerators taking charge of how many pieces of cake to cut, beloved fractions can always be used and be hugged, fractions never become a distraction, always in my side. Oh, beautiful fractions, sometimes changing into decimals, becoming improper, Smooth cross reduces with a pattern making me want to go to Saturn , equivalent fractions, so many ways of fractions, the president of math, multiplying fractions takes me to ten, wait no a hundred, no no no, A MILLION numbers!

               Dear wonderful salty waves, as you form you grow several feet you look so pretty tall and bold. As you crash you add your white foam and subtract your height and the surfers surfing you get such a delight.  Dear wonderful salty waves, as you form you divide   ½ the water on the shore. Then as you crash you add it back to get the sum of a calm shore. Then do it again once more. Dear wonderful salty waves, as your deep blue face slowly starts to multiply I paddle out to you and ride you all the way to the sandy beach while 100% of the sun shines. Dear wonderful salty waves, as I walk by I hear you crash on the shore and you multiply my happiness so I walk by again once more. Dear wonderful salty waves, you’re powerful like a storm slamming onto the shore. As you build and create your seafoam a fraction of you is like the barista at the coffee shop next door. Dear wonderful salty waves, as people walk by the...

Ode to Strategy by Colton Kozloski  February, 9th, 2021  Oh Strategy’s, what could I do without you!  If it weren’t for you there would be no reciprocals or cross multiplying strategy .  I wouldn’t be able to do addition or subtraction . Oh when I write using your time saving ways it brings me joy and happiness.  Oh Strategy what would I do without you! Oh how would I understand dividing fractions . From the multiplying to dividing . Oh strategy how could I ever thank you. Oh Strategy’s, how would I be able to do my work without you!  How would I do my ratios or rates because without it I wouldn’t be able to bake a cake.  Oh Radius and proportions without you is unthinkable!  Oh strategy without your ways, calculating would be impossible.  Oh Strategy how would I do my Algebra without you! Oh how would I understand percentages . If it weren’t for you we would have no decimals or percents to help us find how much cake we ate. Oh stra...

 Oh I love how you are so beautiful popcorn.  I love the popping sound that makes me hungry for a snack.  You are so for filing and good.   Oh I love how you are so beautiful popcorn.You are soooo good and 90% buttery and 10% salty. When I am hungry I turn on  the stove and it sizzles. I put your babies in the pot.  I like to hear it pop.  I like it when you multiply by ten. Oh I love how you are so beautiful popcorn. You are a cloud shaped individual  polygon everytime you pop. Everytime I eat your buttery goodness you're so infinitely delicious that I want to save you for the next day.   Oh I love how you are so beautiful popcorn. When you are in my mouth you are so savory and salty. When I smell you are my saviour. Thank you! When I  take a handful there are 50 kernels per handful. 

By, Kento Ogata 2/9/2021 Oh, the mighty division . Why are you so difficult to solve?  You are even worse than your twin, multiplication .  I could hear your crackling laughter in my head. You two are always glowering at people like you are the boss of the universe.   Oh, the mighty addition . Why are you so negative ?  Why can’t you be more positive like your twin, subtraction whenever I solve you?  I can sense your gloominess wafting from you. I can smell the musty black smoke rising from you, sucking everything that crosses its path. Oh, the mighty divisor , why can’t you ever get along with your twin, the dividend ?  You guys are loud as an entire pack of screaming birds.  People can hear you all the way from the moon!  You guys are like water and oil, but ten-thousand times worse. Oh, the mighty numerator . Why can’t you ever help your mom, the denominator ?  She is always heaving and puffing like a broken machine.  Why do you n...

 My Math Ode Oh wonderful meaningful math, Your problems sway like trees but in my head,  The leaves like answers falling from the branches into my thoughts, A breeze of fractions and multiples,  I take pleasure in solving them, from the roots to the canopy. Oh wonderful meaningful math, You are more special than anyone realizes, For you are helpful in multiple ways, Thorough dividing, multiplying, subtracting and more This is how much I adore you. Oh wonderful meaningful math, The ratios and percents wash in at the same time with the tide, The areas and perimeters of the ocean seem endless, As the waves crash on the shore,  They leave shells with all kinds of angles and shapes. Oh wonderful meaningful math, Even when it’s hard and confusing like a cool foggy day, Take a deep breath and all will be alright, Think of the problem over and over,  Until you understand it, then try again!

  Oh deceptively simple decimal . With your zero-dot-number pattern When multiplied with a whole always larger When divided by a decimal always inexplicably bigger Oh deceptively simple decimal . Black and white and with a number to the right How easily converted to a fraction  How hard to reverse  Sixths and sevenths to your zero-dot-number pattern Oh deceptively simple decimal . One whole always the same parts tenths, hundreths, thousandths  A repeated 10 simple to add to  simple to subtract With your zero-dot-number pattern Oh deceptively simple decimal . Helpful with division , an add on with your zero-dot-number pattern Not needed but greatly appreciated Oh deceptively simple decimal . When multiplying by a whole you move past Past the point to a whole a greater value than With your zero-dot-number pattern

Oh fraction oh fraction with your remarkable and elegant numerator you are on top of the world. Oh fraction Oh fraction what would I do without you. Oh fraction Oh fractions with your remarkable and elegant denominator I would not know what to do.

Oh fraction Of fraction, without ⅔ of your soft and juicy mango I would never have something as shiny in my heart.

Oh fraction Oh fraction my love for you doubles every time I Combien you with ¼ my heart starts to glow.

Like all the fruits in a bowl mixed together. all the love that I have decreased because most of it goes to you. Oh fraction Oh fraction with yo...

 

  Dear fractions, You puzzle me Your numerator on the very top, how many parts you have of the whole  The perfect line separating the two, tells you apart Your denominator , below your fellow friend, you are how many parts the whole is divided into Together, you create an almighty fraction Dear fractions, You can be a mixed number , or a improper one When you are mixed, you fixed the fraction, you are the perfect pair  A whole number and a proper fraction as one I think you go to proper use, improper fraction The number on top, is greater than the one on bottom But you get the job done when multiplying and dividing Dear fractions, You always solve the problem no matter how big or small Or you are the problem, dying for me to figure you out From adding to subtracting , multiplying to dividing In the large sea of math, you will stand out from everything For you are beauty and grace Dear fractions, To the time, to how much pizza I ate (it was two over eight slices) You...
