See, this boy loves math!! You may too!! I'm in the math poems and songs group!! check out our page!!      Here is math poem i wrote =]  Math is all around us... without math our world would be chaos!!! Look all around you, what do u see?? shapes, numbers, fractions, decimals and many more!!! You may think that math is just a waste of time but its not. you need to understand math in order to make it into the real world. so re- think to yourself, "Why do i need math?" and the answers will come up in your mind!!!

We should all give credit to the mathemetitians that have helped us to understand math!!! Without them....there would be no world of math at all. One Greek mathemetitian was Pythagoreas. He created the system of the Pythagorean Therom: a squared+ b squared= c squared.   Another Greek mathemetitian was Eratosthenes. He was the first Greek to measure the circumference of the Earth.  <span style="color: #f042ca; display: block; font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace; font-size: 12pt; text-align: center;"> <span style="color: #b812d3; font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace;">Pizza Fractions- Get a taste of a delicious fraction pie!!!
