Puzzling...

Your post for today is to find at least one thing that you still find puzzling and post about it.  You can ask a question, give an example, or find another way to describe it.  Make sure that you are VERY clear about what you are puzzled about so I can help you through a reply post.

7th graders your post for Tuesday, Feb. 14th, 2012 is question E2 from the CMP Accentuate the Negative problem 1.2:  How does a number line help you to find the smaller value of two numbers?  For example 3 or -7.

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.
