Mathematics: All Classes: Wednesday 3.15.06 Period 1
The math class has not been rearranged, though a laptop computer now stood in the middle of the room and a project screen had been hung up over the board. Broots sat on the teachers desk, trying his best not to bounce a little.
“Morning everyone! Sadly, Mr. Eppes has left us for um, somewhere else. And since the school was apparently unable to secure a substitute I will be taking over the class from now on.” Broots did his best not to cackle. “Okay, today’s class.
Beginners, you guys are going to be having fun with the Pythagorean Theorem. Broots jumped off of the desk and had his laptop show a picture. “It basically states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the two legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. You guys get to prove it using construction paper and scissors, which are all in the back, along with glitter, ribbon, glue, and other random art supplies. When you’re done proving the theorem, there are some practice problems here.
Intermediate, you guys will be doing two problems today. Your assignment is to tell me how they are related. First off, you’re going to construct Pascal’s Triangle. Again, art supplies in the back, if you want to see something pretty, color in all the odd numbers a light color. Then, you’re going to be doing the problems on the worksheet. And then, tell me how the two assignments are related.
Advanced, since we’re down to one student, talk to me please. Okay, have fun! I’ll be walking around if anyone needs help.”
[ooc note: Wiki hates me and has decided that today is a good day to die. Class will typically go up at eleven am est, today was the exception, not the rule. Class is open until Sunday evening.]
