Welcome

Ok 7th graders... We are about to embark on a new endeavor.  We are going to attempt a math blog.  There are a few rules that we need to follow:

1) All comments that you make are to be school appropriate.  Keep it positive.
2) Keep the conversations on mathematics and what you are learning.
3) Make sure that you are respectful of the others that are posting.

Your first post will be this: Define the word integer.
