Powers and Exponents!

There's that old question about if you were hired and had a choice between $1,000 a day or starting with $0.01 and doubling the new amount each day which would you choose?

Of course you see that the person making $1,000 a day would still have a great living at over $350,000 a year (before taxes, we'll save that for percents and decimals), but the person who chooses the penny would be making this:

So, today we did two really big things:

1. Every student has a book that they can bring home so there is a resource that you can use at home.  It does not need to be brought back to class each day as we can see the book online using our Chromebooks.

2. Assignment 1.2
     From the book it is page 14

It will be due on Thursday and we'll be jumping into Order of Operations, there will not be a math lesson on Wednesday due to early release, but we will be do something math related, just not as a full class meeting.

Finally, someone asked about subscribing to the blog, I didn't see how to do that yet, but when I do, I'll post how to do it.  :)
