The parts where the students are explaining the ways that their teachers have connected the subject in class to their own lives. Two of the examples were relating geometry to art and relating chemical bonds to dating.
I agree with the students, when a new subject is introduced it is normally easier to understand if it is related to something that you are already familiar with. If teachers had done this in my science classes I think I would have understood the material sooner and better in the long run. When I read what these students had said it became obvious to me. Of course you would learn a new concept better when it was compared to a concept that you already knew.

5/5 A great QR. You showed that you had read the chapter in the first paragraph and you explained how it was relevant to you in the second paragraph.
