7th Seminar 11.30.07

Finish “Grasshopper Games” for 9 pieces (p=9) and boards with sidelengths of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. Use a table to track your progress and write a rule that relates the moves (M) to the sidelength of the board (S).

Several of you also need to re-do the 3D patterns HW from last week - it must be done on a piece of graph paper with each of the four steps (draw, write, table, equation) done.

Those of you who finished that assignment can use this time to try the challenge:

We won’t meet again until the Friday after Thanksgiving Break, so you have plenty of time.  Make your work neat, clear and thorough.  See me by Wednesday 11/28 if you have quesitons.

Week of 11/12

The seventh and eighth graders at LREI  have just finished their Fall fitness tests, and now have personal goals to reach by the Winter.

Both grades will be starting the Volleyball unit.  The eighth graders have started working on the fundamentals and will start working on more advanced group strategies before games take place.  The seventh grade will begin working on basic fundamentals and game aspects.

Remember to eat healthy and drink LOTS of water!
