Sebuah Institusi Sekolah Dasar memiliki staf dan karyawan. Demikian halnya di SD Muh. Blawong II  tercinta ini. SD yang terletak di perbatasan ini, berjuang untuk mempertahankan eksistensi nya di dunia pendidikan di Dusun Ponggok II Trimulyo Jetis Bantul ini. Dengan di dukung staf pengajar yang rata2 telah bersertifikasi ini, SD ini mencoba bertahan di tengah - tengah SD negeri dan SD Inpres. Namun dengan semangat dan juang tinggi ini, SD yang berjumlah 97 Peserta Didik ini tetap total dalam mengajar. Namun, tanpa adanya suatu dukungan dari pihak terkait, mungkin SD Muhammadiyah yang didirikan pada tahun 1965 ini untuk mengentaskan buta huruf ini hanyalah sia - sia tanpa dukungan dari pihak terkait. Semangat yang tinggi perlu adanya fasilitas yang memadai pula. Untuk itu, dengan blog ini SD Muhammadiyah Blawong II eksis di dunia maya agar semua tahu, bahwa SD Muhammadiyah Blawong II ini adalah SD yang banyak membutuhkan perhatian lebih. Walaupun diimpit dari beberapa SD Negeri dan SD Inpres, tidak menyurutkan anak - anak untuk belajar. terbukti sering menjuarai lomba di tingkat Umum dengan status juara 1. memang untuk di tingkat kecamatan selalu dapat juara 2. Itulah hebatnya SD Muhammadiyah Blawong II ini. Belum lama ini lomba puisi dalam menyambut bidan Internasional menyabet juara 1 atas nama Fitri Rahmawati peserta didik kelas 6 yang di selenggarakan Klinik swasta di Yogyakarta. Untuk lulusan rata - rata peserta didik SD Muh. Blawong 2 di terima di SLTP Favorit yang ada di kec. Jetis. Ini membuktikan bahwa dengan fasilitas minim yang mana apabila kami selalu mengajukan bantuan IT misalnya selalu alasan kurang murid. Tapi kami telah membuktikan bahwa rata - rata lulusan SD Muh. Blawong 2 mampu bersaing. Semangat juang ditengah keterpurukan adalah hal terpenting dalam hidup adalah motivasi tertinggi..... Jaya Selalu SD Muhammadiyah Blawong II.

Top 10 Concerns of Math Teachers

Issues and Concerns for Math Teachers
By Melissa Kelly, About.com Guide

While all curriculum areas share some of the same issues and concerns, individual curriculum areas seem to also have concerns specific to them and their courses. This list looks at the top ten concerns for math teachers.
1. Prerequisite Knowledge
Math curriculum often builds on information learned in previous years. If a student does not have the required prerequisite knowledge, then a math teacher is left with the choice of either remediation or forging ahead and covering material the student might not understand.
2. Connections to Real Life
Consumer math is easily connected to daily lief. However, it can often be hard for students to see the connection between their lives and geometry, trigonometry, and even basic algebra. When students do not see why they have to learn a topic, this impacts their motivation and retention.
3. Cheating Issues
Unlike courses where students have to write essays or create detailed reports, math is often reduced to solving problems. It can be difficult for a math teacher to determine if students are cheating. Typically, math teachers use wrong answers and incorrect solving methods to determine if students did, in fact, cheat.

4. Kids with "Math Blocks"
Some students have come to believe over time that they are "just not good at math." This type of attitude can result in students not even trying to learn certain topics. Fighting this self esteem related issue can be difficult indeed.
5. Varying Instruction
The teaching of mathematics does not lend itself to a great amount of varied instruction. While teachers can have students present material, work in small groups for certain topics, and create multimedia projects dealing with math, the norm of a math classroom is direct instruction followed by a period of solving problems.
6. Dealing With Absences
When a student misses a math class at key instructional points, it can be difficult for them to catch up. For example, if a student is absent on the first few days when a new topic is being discussed and explained, a teacher will be faced with the issue of helping that student learn the material on their own.
7. Grading Concerns
Math teachers, more than teachers in many other curriculum areas, need to keep up with the daily grading of assignments. It does not help a student to have a paper returned a few weeks after the unit has been completed. Only by seeing what mistakes they have made and working to correct those will they be able to use that information effectively.
8. Need for After School Tutoring
Math teachers typically have a lot more demands on their before and after school time from students who are requesting extra help. This requires a greater dedication on their part in many ways to help these students understand and master the topics being learned.
9. Having Students of Different Abilities in Class
Math teachers often have classes with students of varying ability levels within the same classroom. This might result from gaps in prerequisite knowledge or each student's feelings towards their own ability to learn math. Teachers must decide how to meet the needs of the individual students in their classrooms.
10. Homework Issues
Math curriculum often requires daily practice and review for mastery. Therefore, the completion of daily homework assignments is essential to learning the material. Students who do not complete their homework or who copy from other students often struggle at test time. Dealing with this issue is often very difficult for math teachers.
