Sequence Challenge!

number 4 8 fruit gum number 3 7 number 5 Calendar Number 9

For this assignment, you are to come up with a sequence of numbers that is created using a pattern of your choice.  You are to write out the first five terms in the sequence and post it to this blog post as a “comment”.  (ex. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, …)  You also must try to solve at least two other sequences by commenting on their blog posts and telling everyone the next three terms.  All of this is due tomorrow by math class (1st period).  So in review…

1. Post your own sequence.
2. Give an answer to at least 2 other sequences.
3. Due by 1st period Tuesday!

2 truths and 1 lie.

Math 6  Students,

You need to come up with two true statements about yourself, but then you must also create one lie about yourself.  Yes, I said you need to lie.  As you post yours, look at previous comments on this blog thread and comment back others’ posts as to which you think is the lie.

Have fun with this and keep your comments positive and appropriate!

Here’s mine:
1.  I have trained and competed in the sport of gymnastics.
2.  I’ve fallen 2 stories into a garbage dumpster.
3.  I’ve hung out in a night club with Michael Jordan.

DUE: You must post your 3 statements by Monday (9/14), 3rd period.

Welcome to Math 6!
