Introduction

Hello Everyone! My name is Xavier. smile I am in 6th grade, and I am not that good at math. I recently took my math NWEA, and got a 233! (I'm shocked still).
But even after that, I still have no idea how to do the math that we're learning. (Note: I came from a mainly reading school, and then switched to a different one).
See, at the school i'm at, we do math a grade above our level, which me and my parents don't understand why. And now, we're doing square roots. I just found out about mathisfun after I was searching up "Best ways to remember multiplication" at school. After that, I fell in love with the website. I just found out about this forum now, and here I am now. That's all! big_smile

Hi Xavier,

Welcome to the forum!

I'm from the UK so I don't know what a score of 233 means.
