Question of the night: During our simple exploration in the afternoon, tell us one interesting fact you learned.
Good Day! This morning, we began the day by exploring pi a little bit further, even though it was no longer pi day. We figured out that no matter the size of the circle, if you divide its circumference (whoa, big word) by its diameter (whoa, another one), you always get pi...or "3 and little bit more". Super interesting. We watched this video, too: Pi with Pies. We also had some more family presentations, which were, as usual, excellent. It's interesting how many last names got changed when they first moved to Canada or US because people couldn't spell or pronounce them... We're also just starting to talk about subtraction...stay tuned for more. In the afternoon, we explored simple machines, watched a bit of mathnet, then did some magic...er, I mean, math tricks. See you tomorrow! ____________________________________________________ Walking Wednesday Any students who walk, ride, bike to school on Wednesday will be entered for a prize. ____________________________________________________ Power Hour January 2017 Camel Group -- https://studio.code.org/sections/DYTPMD Lion Group -- https://studio.code.org/sections/DSBGDD ____________________________________________________ Reminders:
