Sophia.org Beta Testers

A student found http://www.sophia.org/ and told me about it. It's like Kahn academy but different. I made an account but I am not exactly sure what to do with it. I would love for some kids and maybe parents to join up and help me with it.

 The code for the student group is on my school Instagram, misslowerycabot. Follow me or get it from someone if it looks like something you would like. You don't have to make an account. Just log in using your school email or facebook.

Practice Test FAQ

This will grow through out the day as people have questions and is a VERY good resource for studying because it's everyone's questions. Please comment with any questions that come up. I will be checking in all weekend.

How do I do the picometers/micrometers problems ?

How do I do the fractions/what is the definition of powers?

#40!

This is like the bonus question on the test.

What is a good way to remember Scientific Notation? The Power Rules?

This pdf has one:“Registered Nurses Love Patients,” or RN, LP, which stands for right --- negative, left --- positive.
Thanks to Ms Magdaleno, the best Math chairperson in the world, I have songs for you.

I am not sure what happened to my post. I will get it back up asap. in the mean time, here's a couple videos about what we covered.


Short one with a silly teacher

Big hand with an example JUST like one of the homework problems


I have a group on the site those are from. I posted the code on Instagram and gave it out in class. Ask me or a classmate for it if you want to join. I just learned about the site this weekend so I don't have official lessons there but I would love to try it out with you guys so I can get some ideas about how to use it better.

Instagram

Several student have said Instagram would be an easier method of helping so I set one up. My username is misslowerycabot. I am new to Instagram so I will need help using it. The blog is still a faster way to get me since I don't have a phone that has Instagram because the blog texts me.

And because it can't be avoided
Snow Day Calculator

As of 12:50ish we had a 25% chance Thursday and a 19% chance Friday with a note that this was likely an early dismissal. Both are in the slim to none range so DO YOUR HOMEWORK and GO TO BED ON TIME just in case. A snow day is better when you are rested and don't have homework anway.
