http://ourmathjournal.blogspot.com/2009/07/week-two.html
Sunday, July 19, 2009. And this is why our teacher said we should not play pokers because the odds are stacked against us and that is why they call it gambling. The odds are that you will always lose all your money to the house. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). This is a demonstration blog for an education class at Claremont Graduate University on how to include literacy, including writing, in our math classes. Interesting Websites about math. Sudoku and other puzzles. Im the first one!

Our Math Journal: I'm the first one!
http://ourmathjournal.blogspot.com/2009/07/im-first-one.html
Saturday, July 18, 2009. I'm the first one! The teacher drew my name out to be the first one to write on this blog. I've never written on a blog before, so it's sort of cool. Maybe I'll make my own blog some day! Today we learned about exponents. We never did much with them before in middle school. Our teacher is pretty strict. She wants us to be in our seats when the bell rings! But we're learning things right away. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Interesting Websites about math. Im the first one!

Our Math Journal: The first week of class
http://ourmathjournal.blogspot.com/2009/07/first-week-of-class.html
Saturday, July 18, 2009. The first week of class. During the first week of class, we are starting right off with "exponential expressions" or "powers." The students will be multiplying, dividing and taking the power of powers. Exponents are a shortcut to show how many times a number or variable (like x), called the "base," is multiplied by itself. For example, 3x3x3x3 = "3 to the 4th power" = 81. You can see other examples in the picture. Raise a power to another power. The exponent by the exponent.

Our Math Journal: Welcome to our math class blog
http://ourmathjournal.blogspot.com/2009/07/welcome-to-our-math-class-blog.html
Saturday, July 18, 2009. Welcome to our math class blog. The first period Algebra I class at OurTown High School will be using this blog to tell our families what we are doing in class this year. Almost every day all the students will write a short comment in their Math Journals about what we did in class that day. We will pick one student each day to write his or her journal comments here on the blog. Every day will be a different student, so everyone will write in the blog at least once. The first week...
