This website is a work in progress-AND I am counting on you all to submit writing, artwork or photography for me to publish!!! I am also looking for contributors to my blog.
Math isn't really so bad. Not this year. Not with this teacher. But...As you enter my website, Charlottehatesmath.com you will find art work, stories and poetry from kids ages 10-15. As you might guess from the website, I don’t like math. What I like is poetry - listening to it, writing it, singing it and sharing it. I also admire looking at art work, as well as making it. Math, on the other hand, is not one of my favorite subjects. You can’t communicate with it, its just a bunch of numbers. Oh yeah, and if you are a math wiz, this site is clearly not for you. Sorry Mr. Ess. I forgot to mention Mr. Ess. He’s my 6th grade math teacher. Sometimes when I’m in math class I daydream about becoming a famous artist. Mr. Ess is patient. He doesn’t let you say the word “wait” because he says he’s not going anywhere. I’ve said “wait” about a billion times.
One day in school I hadn’t finished a math test. I asked Mr. Ess if I could be allowed to cut into my art class to finish it. He was fine with that but when I asked Mr. Bee, my art teacher, he replied, “Charlotte this is where you need to be. You love art”. It is what I needed to hear. Art is important to me!!!! It seems like whenver I am in art class that I’m there for only 15 minutes and when I’m in math, it’s 5 hours long.
Time for suggestions. What do you want to see on this site? Email me at
