I'm not sure why I never made this connection before...but in a little moment of posting before i finish reading blogs in this little bit of spare time I have until after March 3 (UIL day...)
One of the main struggles my students have is to put their mathematical/logical thought processes into symbolic form (equations).
One of my main struggles in life is to put my ideas, opinions, reflections into coherent words for others to hear.
Maybe I should sympathize a bit more. Actually I do sympathize for my students who struggle writing equations...because I can tell from they tell me about a problem and what they do manage to get on paper that they do have the right procedural ideas.
