Circle Theorems

You can measure the angle of an arc from the central angle.

Circle Geometry

First we started off with opening EUKLID DynaGeo. It is a good tool to use for circle geometry. Mr. Max started the lesson on Circle Geometry by asking us the most basic question... What is a Circle? a circle is a set of points in a 2D plane, such that all points are EQUIDISTANT from a centre point. We have to use the "Internet" to find the definitions to these circle words.

-Radius
-Diameter
-Circumference
-Chord
-Secant
-Tangent
-Minor/Major Arc
-Arc
-Segmant
-Sector
-Intercepted Arc
-Intercepted Angle
-Angle
-Central Angle
-Inscribed Angle
-Quadrilateral
-Cyclic Quadrilateral

...and we have to find what they are on a Diagram that Mr. Max created.

Work Period

Today is our last chance to finish our Simple/Compound Interest Questions. We can also work on accelerated math. 41 objectives due by today.

Yesterdays Blog.

Dear Everyone who reads the blog,

Sadly, yesterday I forgot to put up my post, which would be why I am here again today! Yesterday we had a sub (not the sandwich) because Mr. Max had some business to take care of, or else he was sick, Either way he wasn't here. So, we had Mr. Richer for a substitute. He was very lovely, barely knew he was there, apparently he has a staring problem but thats okay! During this period we had lots of work to catch up on and stuff to do. Hopefully everyone did all their work, I'm sure we all did because we're such wonderful children.. And thats about all I have to say about yesterday..today. TGIF. Have a lovely day today, and I hope you had a wonderful day yesterday too! :)

May 19

Hey, today was just another work period in class. Mr. Maksymchuk today was not impressed with some of our accelerated math goals. He is deciding whether or not to give us another week to work on our goals. The interest compound quesion are do as well.

Work class on Intrest and Accelerated math

Today in grade 11 applied was another work period to either work on Accelerated math or to work on your Interest assignment. The deadline for Accelerated is tommorow at 3:40 pm where you need 41 completed objectives

Rachels Challenge

Today we had the choice to either work on our budgets and ivestments assignment or math objectives. Just a reminder, 41 objectives are due on friday! If you happen to miss the presentation yesterday, you can go on the website to see what you missed. In my opinion I thought the presentation was emotional to everyone, it was a great experience. One of the best speakers to the school yet. Here is a link to the website.

Work Period

Today we are supposed to be finished our budget things, so if you havent finished those, you might want to get on that. Were getting back into the swing of accelerated math.... there are 41 objectives due the Friday before may long weekend. If you dont understand the work look in the coursework drive for examples because they are all on there. Yup... have a nice day.

Budget Forms

Today we had a work period. We worked on our budget forms and Accelerated math. Mr. Max is giving marks for budged forms if you are done. The next accelerated math dedline is the friday before May long weekend. We have not been assigned how many objectives it will be yet.

Work period

The class has to be finished the spread sheet assignment by the end of the week. Mr.Maksymchuk wants us to exclude the savings from the budget costs, because it would be nice to see seperatly what you are saving.

Math Class

Hello everyone :) Today in Applied Math we started with good old mental math. We are also starting to look at Budgeting and what it is and how to use it. We got the block to work on the Budgeting assignment we got on April 27. We have the week to make some spreadsheets to show budgets.

Budgeting

Today we did mental math then Mr.Max talked about about people getting there education after graduation. Then he handed out an assignment on budgeting, which we have to figure out by ourselves.

Very Eventful Mental Math/Work Period

Hello!

So, today in Mr. Max's Wonderful World of Mathematics, we had a very interesting Mental Math. We learned that a square has always, and will always be a rectangle. We also learned, that there is a possibility Mr. Max can stump us all with the first question because... we all got it wrong! Anyways, today was a work period and it's crash time for Accelerated Math objectives, 33 by the end of today. Good luck everyone!!

Work Period

Once again, today is a work period... and I am REALLY bad at blogging. So I guess... GREEN DAY TICKETS ARE: probably expensive.

Exponential Regression

Today, we learned about exponential regression.

Lock down and Work period

Today, lock down was initiaded during second block. The few kids that came to class were all buzzing about the lock down so Mr.Maks thought it would be a good idea to discuss it. He told us that the lock down today was real. There was a potentially dangerous and armed man at the appartment buildings across from the school so the police made the decision to tell the school to go into lock down. The conclusion of the lock down went well; everyone was quiet and the situation was controlled.
There was only nine kids in class today because some were gone for the Skills competition and some were gone to take their drivers ed test, some were just absent. Because of the absentees our test was pushed back to wednesday. Yay! After we finished talking about the lock down we just had a work period to catch up on accelerated math and whatever else we were working on. Just a reminder there are 35 objectives do on April 23rd.

Work Period/Serious Lockdown Discussion

So today i was sitting in english with Bredin and there was a lockdown. I thought it was fake but it wasn't! The police came and said there was a crazy man that was dangerous at the appartments across from the school. So we sat there for about twenty five mintues until it was over. I don't like lockdowns. So now we have a work period. For math i mean. Peace!
