Where's Matthew?

I'm here! I promise! And my headache is gone! Hallelujah!

Yesterday I ended up leaving school early -- and that didn't affect first period that much, but just thought I'd let you know!

Yesterday we worked on "Ben Franklin's Folly" - a cartoon that the kids drew by plotting points on a coordinate graph. I did want them to finish that for homework, so I'm hoping that you saw it come home last night!

Today, we checked it (you can find it on class docs) and began another "cartesian cartoon" (that's what they're called. And yes, I'd like them to finish it for homework! I'll post that soon on class docs.

This is how we'll be learning how to graph for awhile, so be prepared for some pretty pictures!
