Math Games


Here is a picture of us playing playing Math Games.  In this game students were given a list of problems to choose from.  After writing the problem down they were given the oportunity to wad their papers up and shoot at the basketball goal.  Then they picked up the paper wads and worked the problem that was written on that paper.

Tessellation Prject

So I thought I would try to figure out this whole blogging thing.  It seems to be the way our school is heading, so I thought I would try to get with the times.  This is a picture of my class working on a project.  They are working problems in which they have to add or subtract rational numbers, once they are worked out they build an Octagon tessellation out of the triangular pieces.
