Today we got our Super Corrections back, then we started out with two fun warm-up problems dealing with proofs. We then learned that both of the warm-up problems were false, and we learned the lesson that you need to look at something closely to get it. You need counter-examples to prove that something is false. When looking at proofs we were taught that you should use a left hand side and a right hand side and compare the two. Then prove with mathematical steps. At the end of your proof you can put Q.E.D. which means Quod Erat Demonstradum.
On our projects, Mr. OB suggested comparing decibel, Richter, and pH levels to understand what the log scale means. The rest of the class we worked on Projects.
Projects are due by midnight on Wednesday, however, if you need an extension you can talk to Mr. O'Brien. Also, we have the Super Correction follow-up test next class so study!
Math on my mind: I'm getting a little stressed about the project. Formatting is not really my thing and my work is not very understandable. I just need a little vacation. Also I need to study for the Super Correction test... so much to do, so little time.
On my mind today: I have a weird horoscope today, it's very telling.
Also a little fun fact for your day, my favorite Christmas song is Feliz Navidad.
Happy Holidays!

If there's a lot on your agenda today, you probably wouldn't mind being able to take a little break and just get away from everything. As a matter of fact, it could be a great time to take a little trip with someone you love. And you could end up having some interesting encounters while away from home right now. Read more
Whatever else is going on, you're likely to have a good time chatting and getting caught up with lots of different friends right now. Just realize that it may be time for you to start thinking about making a few financial changes that could end up benefiting your bottom line in the long run.

Hey gang, it's Annie. Here's my horoscope in case anyone was wondering what the universe has in store for me today.
ReplyDeleteYour intuitive and inventive energies are steady and the time is favorable for technological and humanitarian-perhaps some volunteer work enterprises. This is a favorable time for a job change or move. This is a good time to work on the holiday calendar. You may experience the desire to communicate your feelings with those around you. If you are experiencing problems with your partner, then this is a good time to express those concerns. Both of you will be feeling somewhat objective.
