AH HAR HAR AHR I HAVE LAST POST! XD

12 Days Left Of Class!

Yesterday Mr. Maksymchuck showed us the TMV Solver.

the big number of 53!

Today in math we made a list of all of the things that have to get done and this list includes the following:
circle theorems
circle vocabulary
acc. math (53)?
exam formula sheet
systems re-test
blog marks justified
simple interest questions
compound " "
budgets

we had all class to work on these things that have to get done.
The acc. math number of objectives that will have to be finished by the end of the semester or you will get a incomplete in the course will be 53! so work hard!

Today...

Today we worked on our accelerated math. A reminder to everyone to get any missing assignments in, because we only have about 20 classes left!

Budgeting

There was a tragic oil spill in Lousiania.

Today in math we looked at the tragic oil spill in Lousiania. We also seen a little clip that showed us how much it spread. So this means if you like shrimp you better start buying some now before they get to expensive to afford. After we looked at that we actually started to work we had the choice to either work on your accelerater math or Exercise 2: Interest questions 1-12 or you could of work on any work that you haven't got done yet.

100 th POST!

WOO HOO! #100 is mine! /\ _ /\

Accelerated math

Geography kids are back! Which means they probably have homework, therefore today is a workday! Accelerated math all around.

We have a big assgnment to do, and on the board it says "do all excercise #2; simple interest" -Mr.Maksymchuk.

Also get started on your calculator programs that you have to create as well as finishing the spreadsheet on the computer and have a nice day :)

Simple Interest!

Today, after the long weekend Mr. Maksymchuk hammered us with some insanely tough, incredibly challenging stuff. NAH! Just kidding, it was all pretty straight forward. We learned how to calculate Interest, Principal, Rate, and Time. First we were shown the hand trick, than we made a spreadsheet, and after some errors we made a program on our calculators.

Those images show what we learned today.

Thursday the Work Day.

Well we started the day off by getting a talk by Mr. Maksymchuk as usual. Today the topic was don't sit back in the last few weeks and try to finish next year, or he will FAIL you. Made it very clear that he is not scared to fail you, so you better put it in a high math gear. He ended his talk off by telling us how we should start studying for the exam coming up in about a month and a bits time by studying atleast once a week. Then he told us today is a work period so o i better get to work!!

The Usual

We took a TADD test and won chemically coated candy. After that we did accelerated math for the rest of the class.

Equations of Circles

Equations of Circles is AMO (Acc. math objective) number 60. We start the lesson off by Mr. Maksymchuk reminding us that a circle is a relation because of it failing the vertical line test. Two things about a circle that you can change are:

1. LOCATION / POSITION (coordinates of center)

2. SIZE (based on radius of diameter)

The next thing we did was play around with Graphmatica and learned that if you put x^2+y^2=e^2 (x squared + y squared = radius squared) it makes a circle. Then we learned that if you put the x and y in ( ) then you can add values to them, such as (x-8)^2+(y-7)^2=4. This made a circle in the positive quadrant which was interesting because of the equation haves -8 and -7. However when you put +8 and +7 it goes into the negative quadrant.

This is why the circles go where they go in the quadrants.

Mr. Maksymchuk then showed us how to do two of Mikayla's problems, as shown below:

Onto post yet again

And today Mr Maks is back! Figures that we better finish our math soon... Max gear or something. Circltheorums (ums?) are still due, don't forget about that re-test thingie for systems, and No Mental Math TOday.
Just as well don't forgot to email Mr Maks on why you deserve a 100% on your blog justification. -_-

What a lovely morning, great for working on our Accelerated Math while Mr. Maksymchuk is away. Seeing as I don'y have much to say heres a picture to look at.

http://www.blog37.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/whale1.jpg

Today Mr.Maksymchuk was away as he informed us of yesterday, So we were to work on our Accelerated math.

There are 10 kinds of mathematicians. Those who can think binarily and those who can't...

Email Maskymchuk

Today we are to email Mr. Maskymchuk. Mr. Maskymchuk would like to see us suceed at passing this course by completing all the accelerated math the has been assigned. He is still needing the circle therom assignments from a few more students. Several students will be leaving for the geography trip in a few days they are encouraged to do accelerated math while they are away. WOOWW YAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Snow in May

mental math? or orange juice?

Today in math class we started off the day with mental math. Then we moved on to continue working on our circle assignment which is due today.

Mr Maksymchuk gave us a quote today which stated, " mental math is better for your brain that orange juice is" He has based this theory on the concept that mental math starts making you think in the morning which will prepare you for the rest of your day.

Geometry Assignment

Today Mr. Max had us continue working on our Geometry assignments, or work on accelerated math. Don't worry, we're allowed to use programs like Euklid to make nice circles and what not.

Don't forget to add "Chord" to your vocabulary for the Geo assignment!

For those of you who weren't here, the vocabulary words for the circles are;

Radius
Diameter
Circumference
Sector
Secant Line
Tangent Line
Inscribed Angle
Central Angle
Congruency
Arc
Minor Arc
Major Arc
Cyclic Quadrilateral
Bisector
perpendicular Bisector
and Chord

Geometry Assignment

Today we were assigned to do the project in the video. The project consisted of many definitions that we had to find and after we were done getting the definitions we had to make a diagram either on a paper or a program on the computer such as "Euklid."

Mr.Maksymchuk also told the class today if he thinks we are far behind on our Accelerated Math objectives then he will be sending a message home to our parents to "Increase our motivation."

Theorems

Today we started with number 28 mental math, after we finished mental math Mr. Maksymchuk did some notes about theorems, including the 7 circle theorems. Once we finished that we just worked on any work you needed to get done.

Senior 3 Applied Math-Test RETAKE??

In regards to the systems of linear equations test we took awhile back. I was thinking we should redo the test some time after school next week on the 27th of April or May 4th. Please feel free to blog your opinion. (ASAP)

Euklid

Super happy fun time?! I think so!

Start out with mental math, of course.

Mr.Maksymchuk says DO THIS! .. Pretty much all he said was to use euklid and figure out all the neat things to do on that program than he says "make snakes" "go play" "go figure out how to change colors" and such.

25 minutes for catch up, feel free to post your stick men or whatever you make on the blog :)

Today in class Mr.Maksymchuk showed us the "One or Two game". The object of the game is by adding by one or two you have to get to twenty. Also we were given the famous "How Many Mcnuggets Can't You Buy?" Here is the info for both games.

Yesterday Mr Maksymchuk explained, what may have been, one of the hardest questions for Linear Programming. He gave us this example as a review to test our skills so far in this unit. If you have any questions at this point or aren't quite sure of what is going on ask Mr. Maksymchuk or classmates!!!! The word problem we did for the example was about explosives and we had to find out the maximum profitfor each year. Above, is the video, step by step, working through the problem.

* Remember to try to stay caught up with accelerated math! Only a couple months left of school.

Work Period

Today, is a work period due to Mr.Maksymchuk teaching us so much in the last few days he wants us to do accelerated math.

Linear Programming

Today Mr. Maksymchuk taught most of us something new called Linear Programming. I think the whole class learned a little bit better without Mr. Lewis Oman here today but we also did not have as many laughs as we do in a class period. Mr. Maksymchuk taught us a turtle farm and rabbit farm question today which ended up just being a 100 rabbit farm which turns into the biggest profit. The video upload is not working out right now so i will upload it another time, but i think that is all i am going to write about because it is a monday morning. Have a great week :).

Why did the chicken cross the road

Compliments of www.collinson.fr

Why did the chicken cross the road ???? I stumbled on this its awesome!


KINDERGARTEN TEACHER: To get to the other side.

PLATO: For the greater good.

ARISTOTLE: It is the nature of chickens to cross roads.

KARL MARX: It was a historical inevitability.

TIMOTHY LEARY: Because that's the only trip the establishment would let it take.

SADDAM HUSSEIN: This was an unprovoked act of rebellion and we were quite justified in dropping 50 tons of nerve gas on it.

JACK NICHOLSON: 'cause it f.....g wanted to. That's the f.....g reason.

RONALD REAGAN: I forget.

CAPTAIN JAMES T. KIRK: To boldly go where no chicken has gone before.

HIPPOCRATES: Because of an excess of phlegm in its pancreas.

JOHNNY ROTTEN: Because it was stapled to the punk rocker.

JOHNNY CARSON: Because it heard there was a man over there laying bricks and it wanted to see for itself!

LOUIS FARRAKHAN: The road, you see, represents the black man. The chicken 'crossed' the black man in order to trample him and keep him down.

MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.: I envision a world where all chickens will be free to cross roads without having their motives called into question.

MOSES: And God came down from the Heavens, and He said unto the chicken, "Thou shalt cross the road" And the chicken crossed the road, and there was much rejoicing.

FOX MULDER: You saw it cross the road with your own eyes. How many more chickens have to cross the road before you believe it?

RICHARD M. NIXON: The chicken did not cross the road. I repeat, the chicken did NOT cross the road.

MACHIAVELLI: The point is that the chicken crossed the road. Who cares why? The end of crossing the road justifies whatever motive there was.

JERRY SEINFELD: Why does anyone cross a road? I mean, why doesn't anyone ever think to ask, "What the heck was this chicken doing walking around all over the place, anyway"

FREUD: The fact that you are at all concerned that the chicken crossed the road reveals your underlying sexual insecurity.

BILL GATES: I have just released the new Chicken Office 2000, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook.

OLIVER STONE: The question is not, "Why did the chicken cross the road?" Rather, it is, "Who was crossing the road at the same time, whom we overlooked in our haste to observe the chicken crossing?"

DARWIN: Chickens, over great periods of time, have been naturally selected in such a way that they are now genetically disposed to cross roads.

EINSTEIN: Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road moved beneath the chicken depends upon your frame of reference.

BUDDHA: Asking this question denies your own chicken nature. RALPH WALDO

EMERSON: The chicken did not cross the road. . . it transcended it.

COLONEL SANDERS: I missed one?

ERNEST HEMINGWAY: To die. In the rain.

KPMG CONSULTING: Deregulation of the chicken's side of the road was threatening its dominant market position. The chicken was faced with significant challenges to create and develop the competencies required for the newly competitive market. KPMG Consulting, in a partnering relationship with the client, helped the chicken by rethinking its physical distribution strategy and implementation processes. Using the Poultry Integration Model (PIM), KPMG helped the chicken use its skills, methodologies, knowledge capital and experiences to align the chicken's people, processes and technology in support of its overall strategy within a Program Management framework. KPMG Consulting convened a diverse cross-spectrum of road analysts and best chickens along with KPMG consultants with deep skills in the transportation industry to engage in a two-day itinerary of meetings in order to leverage their personal knowledge capital, both tacit and explicit, and to enable them to synergize with each other in order to achieve the implicit goals of delivering and successfully architecting and implementing and enterprise-wide value framework across the continuum of poultry cross-median processes. The meeting was held in a park-like setting, enabling and creating an impactful environment which was strategically based, industry-focused, and built upon a consistent, clear, and unified market message and aligned with the chicken' mission, vision, and core values. This was conducive towards the creation of a total business integration solution. KPMG Consulting helped the chicken change to become more successful.

Its TIME!

Math has began. Anyway I'm bored now cause im supposed to scribe so I'll tell you a joke or two. /\ _ /\

A mushroom walks in a bar and sits down. The bartender looks up and say to the mushroom "sorry we don't serve mushrooms here"
The mushroom greatly saddened says "Why? I'm a fun-gi."
(compliments from memory, told to me by by my father)

Ha ha ha ha a here's another joke.

A french man about to be electrocuted by the chair proclaims to his executioner "Tomorrow's head lines, french fries."

A man about be electrocuted by the chair asks his executioner "Is this thing safe?"

(Compliments for the last two jokes come from Wikipedia on a section about dark humar...)

Never lend a geologist money. He considers a million years ago to be recent.

(compliments from Bathroom reader, Its where I learned the joke)

Haaa okay enough jokes onto math! Im actually curiously wondering if anything NEW will be taught today... SO in the mean time another joke


A man was walking home alone one night when he hears a BUMP...BUMP...BUMP... behind him. Walking faster, he looks back, making out an image of an upright coffin banging its way down the middle of the street towards him...BUMP...BUMP...BUMP...

The man begins to run towards his home, and the coffin bounces quickly after him, faster...faster ...BUMP ... BUMP ...BUMP. He runs up to his door, fumbles with his keys, opens the door, rushes in, and locks the door behind him. However, the coffin crashes through his door, with the lid of the coffin flapping...BUMP...BUMP...BUMP... on the heels of the terrified man.

Rushing upstairs to the bathroom, the man locks himself in. His heart is pounding. With a CRASH, the coffin breaks down the door. Coming slowly towards him, the man screaming, reaches for something, anything...

All he can find is a box of cough drops!

Desperate, he throws the cough drops at the coffin ...



...and...of...course,



...the coffin stops!

(compliments to www.collinson.fr, please support them by going to there site to read more jokes =P)

SUB DAY!!!

Hi, so today was supposed to be blogged by Uriah, however, beacause of my fellow team mates and me are going to the F1 in schools competition in Winnipeg tomorrow i wont be here to blog. By the way, F1 stands for Formula 1. So like i was saying today was a Sub day and we had Ms. Rogers as our sub. We were to work on ACC if im not mistaken i do believe that Mr. Maksymchuk told me and ryan that for Friday we are supposed to be in the Neibourhood of about 36 or 37. Other than this Have a great day!

He's back, and he's kewl!

That's right! This Thursday the Kong is coming back to take out trash and clean up this one horsed blog!
You better be there. Same bloggin' time, same bloggin' channel, same bloggin' site!
Well on Thursday! Not Wednesday! Cause I traded with James! 0_0

Today we started by doing some of our accelerated math, and we had planned on doing mental math later, but Mr. Maks decided not to disturb our working. so all we did was worked on accelerated math.

Today we started the day off great with no metal math (or MM). We had a sub cause Mr. Maksymchuk was at home watching Dr Phil, the Office, and Dr. House. Anywhoo. We have to keep working on Accelerated Math. We have to get up to 26 objectives. SO Keep up people.

This morning Mr. Maxsymchuk asked me this: Post something awesome. I believe that the picture above this text best describes the word “awesome.” If you please allow me to explain what is going on, but as you can see for yourself it’s pretty self explanatory. Skywalker on guitar, Solo on guitar, Vader on bass, Chewbacca on drums, R2-D2 and C3-P0 cover synth and keys. This picture also has the ability to solve world peace.

Picture from Demotivateus.com Leo out.

Today's Class we started out with the usual Mental Math (MM). From here the class proceeded into learning more about exponential function growth and decay. The following on how to preform and solve these problems is shown in the examples below:

Depth of water and its light

The intensity of light visible underneath the surface of a pond decreases by 5% for each meter of depth below the surface. Write as exponential function which models the intensity of light at any depth, d, below the surface. Let Io represent surface and I(d) represent intensity at d meters.....

The above shows the four different possible answers for the following question, these are obtained by reading the question and putting what is given into formula. The graph shows that I(d) or Y is the light that is revealed from the water, this can go no higher than 100% light, because 100% is just your max. The d being the distance is what mover along the horizontal region. From whats give we know that for every meter we go down we lose 5% or so of light. Its easy enough from there, just look and do the math!

Animal species population

Just graph and solve!

• If you don't understand any of the following shown then leave your questions in the comment box and i will try to the best of my ability to help!

ZOMG I PRESSED NEW POST! Since i am here i shall help yu do math!
http://www.ehow.com/how_4527115_sheet-of-type-of-material.html

wooo hooo this will help you in making squares all big and stuff~
to bad you all prbelly finished allreadey

Hello!
today we did mental math.
Mr. Maksymchuk reduced the mastered objective goal to 26.
today we worked on Accelerated math, and he talked to every one about where we are and how we are doing.

Bring-A-Box Wednesday

Today we started the morning out with Mr. Maksymchuk passing out our report cards, mental math and continued working with the maximization volume box problem.
Considerations:
1. "How big are the corners to remember?"
If I remove this big of a corner, then the volume is this...
HINT: Spreadsheet
2. V(x) as a function of the square corner measure (x)
Bring your boxes for tomorrow morning!

maximizing the volume of a open top box

Today in math we started out with the always fun mental math. Everyone should if you have to re-write the test put date that they would like to re-write it, if you would like to have some say in the test date. Today we were given about a question about maximizing the volume of a open top box. The picture on the below is the question that we have to answer. On Wednesday march 24th you will have to have a box made and be ready to hand it in to Mr. Maksymchuk. There are many different things that you are able to make your box out of including things like paper, cardboard and if you would like you could even use metal.

Ticalc!

Today Mr. Maksymchuck showed us a new website related to math, http://www.ticalc.org/

It has tons of helpful math resources (and games) available for download and use on your calculator, so go grab some NOW!

Other then that, today is a work period, so we can catch up on accelerated math because we should have 29 objectives by spring break

St. Patrick's Day!

Today in math we went over the morning bulleton and did are 14th mental math. Mr.Masksymchuk made all the mental math questions related to St.Patrick's Day. After we finished correcting mental math we got to work on what ever we needed to get done for a hour ( the rest of the class). We never got nothing new or learned anything new. Most people just worked on thier accelerater math. Have a good St. Patrick's Day!

Pi day!

We started off the day with mental math. Then discussed our test that we did previously and one we have coming up before spring break.

Apparently it was Pi day yesterday.. if your like me and never heard about it before well here is a short definition provided by wikipedia

-Pi Day and Pi Approximation Day are two holidays held to celebrate the mathematical constant π (pi) (in the mm/dd date notation: 3/14); since 3, 1 and 4 are the first three decimal digits of π. March 14 is also the birthday of Albert Einstein and the two events are sometimes celebrated together.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_Day


<-- This is him..I didn't intensionally mean to keep the second picture, but it would not erase for some reason.






http://images.google.ca/imageshl=en&source=hp&q=Albert+Einstein&gbv=2&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=


3-20 people were done the homework.. so we finished that up for the rest of the class.

The Day After....

On Wednesday we reviewed "Quadratic Functions" for the Curlers that were away on Tuesday. I was one of the curlers so, the review from the previous day was a benefit. I still am a little confused on how this stuff works out, among other students in the class, so if you know what you are doing please feel free to help out. To help out some, I downloaded the video for Wednesday March, 10th, but however couldn't get the files for the lesson to download. Sorry and good luck!

For other people, like the curlers that were away or even people that don't understand, I suggest that you watch the lesson(video) from March 9th, it gives quite a bit of information.

o hai!
A day in the life of an average eurpean person. In the morning they woke up. They got angry that there breath was sour so they got angry. They went on a evil rampage and destroyed half the world. Soon the earhs resources were all used up. Gas prices sky rocket and many people died of the bubonic plague.
Soon alien invades came from outer space and started to enslave the human race. Soon man kind was destroyed. But suddenly the savage Europeans decided they had enuf. They took up arms of quadruple barreld shot guns and started blasting aliens to hell. Soon they stole the aliens weapons and started vapourizing their ships. Soon the aliens were driven back. The Europeans scientsists made better weapons out of the alien technology. They also made huge ship yards and started making death stars. Soon the aliens fleets were destroyed and the Europeans blew up the aliens world. The eurpeans stopped fighting for a minute, Took a drink of beer, then went on to take over the rest of the universe.
Hence, the empire was born.

March. 8

Monday we didn't learn anything new. On the other hand, we got to finish our homework and work on accelerated math. Mr. Maksymchuk did however say parent teacher is coming up and he would like for us to come with our parents. (COME TO PARENT TEACHER!!)

Another Day in The Center of The Universe

Today we had a sub. Our sub was Mr. Penner, Mr. Maksymchuk was gone in some kind of interviews. The sub read out what we were supposed to be doing which was; work on ACC. Math, we were assigned another 5 objectives which puts us at 20 in total. Other than this and having to work with the dreadful word problems I found it a good class.

I learned a new word?

YAYZOR?

Super Kong Says What Happened!

Guess what! Today we got our tests back! YAYZOR! -_- WAIT I DIDN'T GET MY TEST! Oh she means a test for us to do in AM (Accelerated Math)....
I also got an exercise that we probably gotta do...
We didn't learn much yet so it seems today is another one of those work really hard days! HAH!

YAY!!! Math!!!

Yesterday in math, we spent the whole class catching up on accelerated math while Mr. Maksymchuk was away. If we were already where we were supposed to be, we worked on what else needed to be done.

linear systems test review.

Today we started off by doing our mental math, we then continued with a test review which is below, along with a recording of the review.

Team Canada

Hurray WE WON. TEAM CANADA WON GOLD. 3-2. YAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today we started off great with no mental math but we had a sub. For Mr. Maksymchuk was away. Watching Oprah and Dr. Phil. Anyways today we are to continue with accelerated math. don't fall behind. So ketchup.

The Epicness of Being Late

I was supposed to blog on February 22, but due to some technical difficulties I am posting today. So, on that day it was short blocks, which means no lesson or mental math usually. In that case, we had a work period. All of us were doing either accellerated math or the word problem excercise.
Or for those that understand webdings:
I was supposed to blog on Febuary 22, but due to some technical difficulties I am posting today. So, on that day it was short blocks, which means no lesson or mental math usually. In that case, we had a work period. All of us were doing either accellerated math or the word problem exercise.

Today we discussed how to improve our blog posts to better the grade 11th math blog. The above post has nothing to do with math, unless you count as this as an mathematical expression Oprah+money=infinite power . As you can see an explanation can add so much more creativity. Later in this year you're going to know the difference between a Liske post and an Oman post, plus it makes life a whole lot easier for the children. TMNT FTW.

Word Problems

Word Problems are sentence sequenced problems in which you are needed to find something such as a cost, or maybe the distance of the object of transportation (ex. Car, Plane, Train, Boat...etc) Example of these word problems below!

1) Plane flies 900 km with a tail wind of 3h. Later, the same plane flies the same path at 4h over the 900 km against the wind. What is the speed of the plane with no wind?

When trying to figure out the equation, you need your X and Y to represent info you don't know.

X=the speed of the plane with no wind

Y=speed of wind in km/h (kph)

So....... You plug this into formula now and the rest of the stops are shown in the image!

2) The Sum of the digits of two-digit number is 12. If the digits are reversed, the new number is 36 more than the original number. Find the original number.

Im sorry everyone that i didnt blog when i was supposed to..

my day was feb 19th

we learned something new that day. im Pretty sure it was a day 1 so we didnt do mental math and Mr. Maksymchuk talk for about 40 Mins...

Feb.18th

Today we never learned a new lesson. However, we got to finish our homework and continue to work on accelerated math. Mr. Maksymchuk explained to us again how we have to master ALL our objectives to be able to earn our credit. WORK HARD AND DON'T FALL BEHIND!

feb 17,10 Elimination method or addition/subtraction method

In math today mr. Maksymchuk taught us a new lesson called addition and subtraction and when he was done he assigned number 6, you could do odd numbers or even numbers which will be checked tomorrow. If you finish that you can do accelerated math, which there is lots of to do.

Substitution Method (again)

Today we went over substitution method again, because it seemed that no body showed their work, or did the homework at all. Mr. Maksymchuk showed us how to turn 1 line into the variable we would be substituting into the other line ( e.g X) in order to find one variable (Y) which we could then substitute inorder to find the X variable. Or something like that...

Enjoy;

Substitution Method

Today we went over this method. Feb.12/10
I learned quite a few interesting things by hearing this lesson. To improve my knowledge on the Substitution Method. Mr Maksymchuk also starts talking about cougars at the 17-19 minute mark.

Today in math we didn't do any mental math. Instead we went over how to do accelerater math and he showed us how to scan your accelerater math sheets to see how well you did on it and to know if you need more pratice or if you can write the test for that section. If you needed more practice it will print out some more work so you can have more pratice and try to get it. After he explian every thing he needed to tell us about accelerater math we got to work on it, so we just had a work class, because he never taught us anything new today.

In today's class, Mr. Maksymchuk was away. So we didn't have any mental math or lessons. Instead, we were assigned to complete questions on #1 and #2 from the first handout and to start and finish #3. When completed, we were then to do accelerated math. Overall, everyone was working efficiently and on task.

Do NOT call your title of your post the date :)

Starting off the day good with no mental math!
-Some people decided to try and bring their mark up by doing the old homework over, plus the new questions to get some marks in where they lost yesterday.

And last but not least we learnt Systems of Linear Systems:
.. Which I cannot upload so someone else will put it up!

2/6/10

Today we recapped on Linear Equations and learned about SYSTEM Solutions.

Some mental math questions...

Some months have 30 days, some months have 31 days. How many months have 28 days?

A farmer had 17 sheep. All but 9 died. How many live sheep were left?

Divide 30 by half and add ten. What do you get?

you can read more of these type of questions at: http://www.knowledgebase-script.com/demo/article-467.html#ixzz0ec7LsLJG

Todays Events February 4 /10

Today Mr. Maksymchuk gave us our first mental math. I was quite pleased with the results due to me getting 100% on it. By the looks of things at my table everyone else was doing quite well as well. After this we all got to get our lap tops. Then our task was to make sure we were all part of the blog and to put up a "nothing" post of basically what ever we wanted. However since it is my job to be the blog scribe today I get to post what we did. After all of this happened the bell rang and we were dissmissed. Since we didn't actually take a real lesson today with notes I have posted a link to a math help website below.

Looking forward to a new and interesting year in math. :D
