This is your blog! Why a blog and a wiki??? Well, at the very least, your homework will be listed here (by you!), and you can subscribe to this blog via Google Reader or your iGoogle page. Now you don't have to "find" your homework assignment. Your homework assignment will come to you!

You should also use this if you want the rest of the class to see something - like a question you'd like help with, or a cool solution you came up with you think maybe no one else thought of. Remember, they'll all be subscribed to this too, and their comments to your post might really help!

End of Year Project

Hey guys - check this out: Abe Lincoln.

So what do you think I want you to work on after the AP Exam?!?!??

Start thinking of your "favorite mathematician" now!!

Chapter 5

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Hapich) — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 13:30:00 +0000

Your main focus for this chapter is area under curves.

Remember, help for your textbook can be found at Hippocampus. Specifically, if you need help on Riemann sums or the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, click on either one of those links for that particular lesson.

If anyone would like to reply to this post with a comment of the homework for this week, feel free!

Class of 2010 - This is now your blog!

noreply@blogger.com (Michelle Hapich) — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 14:19:00 +0000

Use this however you want!

Take turns from week to week posting the homework here. (Someone want to make a schedule?)
Then subscribe to the blog so the homework comes to you! ... No more Edline for assignments.

Discuss problems with the homework - help each other!

Share links for helpful sites, or videos from Discovery you've found.

Math info not class related?? That's great too! (Moody's Mega-Math Challenge, Math League, Pitt's Integration Bee, ...)

Again, this is your blog, so use it however you can to help! I subscribe to it too, so I won't miss a thing - if you need me, I'm just a post away!

Good Luck Tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
