February 6th, day one

Here is the list of things we did today (located on the side board by the door):
Mental math
Blog Scribing Rules
Life insurance.

Today we pretty much started off with a little explanation of how to do mental math. Then we jumped right into it. The mental math took us about over fifteen minutes, just because we are just getting into it. (pictures of the mental math wont always be in the blog, i just thought that since it was my first blog i would include it so i can figure out how to do it =] )

here is the mental math that we did today, just thought that i would add it in here

After mental math we got a handout for the blog scribing and we just read through it. It pretty much gave us all the rules on how to do a scribe. The handout also laid out the ground rules as to what exactly is expected of us while posting a blog.

The above picture is the "notes" that we could have taken (notes only have to be written if you feel that you learn better doing so). They basically just told us what was needed to be done in each chapter of the text book. It just made it clear as to what was expected to be done throughout each chapter. We also have the option of working ahead and finishing all the vocabulary that is in each chapter on the first page of each exploration(located in the blue boxes at the bottom of the page). We can do the assignments as we go along, or all at once, that option is left totally up to each of us.
