Math Lab #1

Hello class! This will be an introduction into the joys of blogging about the math that you have learned. So let's begin.
In class, we have been studying measurement. Tell me what you have learned from the past two weeks. What lesson did you like best and why? What does precision mean? How are most rulers marked? How will you be able to apply the what you have learned about measurement to real world situations? Give me a real world situation in which measurement is important and tell me why it is important to that situation.
Next, leave a brief comment on any class activities you would like to do in class or lessons that you would like to see covered in class.
Post you comments. Be sure to include your name.
Have a great Labor Day weekend!!!!
Go Tigers! Beat San Augustine!
