Friday, December 11.

Happy Friday, everyone!

We started out class today by sharing our google doc projects with Mr. O'brien. If you're good at time management, maybe you have something done on those. I do not. However, he will be LEAVING THE COUNTRY on Thursday right after school, so make sure to get those rough drafts in by 2:15 on the 17th.

Next up, we worked on supercorrections for the remainder of class. Etherpad was encouraged as a method of discussing confusing problems. Here's the link to that pad: http://etherpad.com/jjNOAl9LoD. We put the numbers of the questions on the board, and anyone who had gotten that question correct put their name next to it. We helped each other out as much as possible, and Mr. O'B came around helping as well.

On My Mind: I found that most of my mistakes had to do with not taking enough time to think about a problem. The biggest lesson I am learning from these tests is that you need to take your time with each problem (within reason) and go back and check everything at the end. There were two problems (#4 & #6) for which I put almost nothing down on my test. Looking back, I knew how to do those problems, just didn't put in enough thought while I was rushing through. I hope that's helpful.

Homework:
Finish up supercorrections and get going on the quarter project due Thurs.

Have a good weekend, and pray for snow!
Next Scribe is Kayla
