This week we start a new marking period with a new textbook: Frogs, Fleas, and Painted Cubes. The mathematics we will be encountering revolves around quadratic equations and their special components. We will shoot hoops and talk about parabolas, and watch frogs jump to see the flight path. Things will move quickly as we have a lot to do before the holidays. As always please remember to get your work in promptly for maximum credit.
