Do not expect me or my Sergeant Major to plead your case with the division. This is life! Meet the mission!” These types of statements are unacceptable to me because such comments often lead to low unit morale and send message that we do not care about each other, and about others. This explains why there are so many negative
create challenges that expose students to build on patterns and number sense. Division is no exception; students should be able to make connections to place value, patterns, and previously used strategies to solve division problems. Therefore, once students reach a certain point of fact fluency they must develop new methods to perform divisions.

No man is beaten until he thinks he is.” The attitude of “keep punching” encompassed the ferocious nature of the Seventh Army’s offensive on Messina.

Most of the things I had trouble with was the fractions, percents, and word problems. I think this is because of these problems, I have always had a fear of math and wanted to stay away from math. Everything I tried to do to help with these fears either worked for a little while or it just never stuck with me. no matter how hard I tried to succeed in math, I always needed extra help
The 4th Armor Brigade Combat Team (ABCT) has undergone significant changes in the past three years. The brigade was once one of the best maneuver brigades in Forces Command (FORSCOM) but is now riddled with issues ranging from lack of a clear vision for the unit to low morale, and ethical concerns. As the incoming Brigade Commander, I have had 30 days to assess the unit and review historical information and an evaluation from the Centers for Army Lessons Learned (CALL).
