Hey sorry for not posting on the blog last Friday, I was really busy with the dream room project. Last friday Mr. Maks said that we could have till Monday to had our projects in, but from there if you haven't handed it in, you will lose marks. Also last Friday, it was freezing in the room. Mr. Maks even had to wear his jacket. Someone commented that he was cold blooded, so he commented on poikilothermic vs. homeothermic. Everyone either worked on their dream room project or accerated math.

Work Period

Today was a "work period" we continued to work on accelerated math. Mr. Maksymchuk is starting a new unit tommorow called "Functions & Relations". Today is our last day to work on "Dream Room" projects, also he is here for tutoring tommorow after school.

Cool Game

to play this game you have to get the ball into any of the red open square.

if u want to go home and play just write dont the code at the bottom of the screen.

SIMON

Here is a game that will hurt your brain to no extent when you cant remember what color was lit up next.

SIMON

Boring Game

Chain Reaction is a very boring game but you can tell it's good for the brain because you only get one move that you have to plan out well.

Work Period

Today Mr.Maks reminded us that our everything spreadsheets are now overdue. He will be entering our everything spreadsheet marks in the computer in the coming days so if you aren't done the spreadsheet then now is the time to finish it. Mr.Maks also reminded us that Accelerated Math is getting down to the wire in the fact that we only have 4 of 5 weeks left to do it this semester. Our "Dream Room" projects are due next week. that is all today. Other than that it is a work period today. Our Exam is on THURSDAY JUNE 24 IN THE MORNING. IT WILL EITHER BE IN THE RESOURCE ROOM OR IN MR.MAKS ROOM

Math Day 70 :/

Today was a work period because Mr. Maksymchuck decided not to try to talk over the fans seeing as its so hot in this room! He also assigned this project for dream bedrooms. and finally Mr. Maksymchuck believes strongly in high fives.. :) so if you see him dont be afraid to give him one!

Monday, May 17, 2010

Mr.Maks is back

we worked on mental math and our dream room project

Friday, May 14, 2010

Hello everyone today we had a sub. So that means it was a work class. Sorry its smll but thats all.

Wednesday, May 12, 2010

work day

On Tuesday we had a work day because Mr. Maksymchuk was not here. We had a chance to work on our everything spread sheet, our project and our accelerated math.

Friday, May 7, 2010


Today Mr. Maksymchuck announced that he will be turning 39 this year, he also inforced the no hugging rule in the classroom so as a reminder i put this picture on the blog

Thursday, May 6, 2010

Work Period

Today we worked on more accerlerated math, and worked on our spreadsheets. E-Mail your spreadsheet to Mr. Maks when it is perfect there are only 6 classes left to do so.

something uesfull

I was looking up something that would help me with cheeking my spreadsheet and i thought that it may help someone else. So here is the web address. http://www.smartconversion.com/unit_calculation/Surface_area_calculator.aspx
it has Volume and Area

Tuesday, May 4, 2010

Work Period

Today we worked on the excel spreadsheets that are due on May 15. We also worked on some accelerated math.

Catch up

Today, and by that I mean yesterday because I'm late making this post, would be a great day to catch up. The spreadsheet is due in less than 2 weeks so we gotta get going on that, but it's important to keep your accelerated math up to date too, especially if you got the letter home from Mr. Maks because you need to finish that up to pass the course.

Thursday, April 29, 2010

Today in math class we did mental math. We got to draw smiley faces!! Other than that we are having a work period. Remember don't forget to work on your spread sheets on Excel, you need to have all formulas for 2-D and 3-D shapes and objects. They are due May 14!

Day of "The Letter"

Today we did mental math to begin the class. the remainder of the class is being used as a work period for accelerated math. Mr. Maks talked to students today that were below a certain point in their accelerated math, and that there would be a letter sent home the middle of next week.

Thursday, April 22, 2010

Earth Day Games

Today we did Mental Math 26. After that Mr. Maksymchuk taught us a game called Take 1 or 2. The game only has a couple rules. The rules are it has to start at 0 and you can only add 1 or 2 after that. The person who says 20 out loud wins. After that Mr. Maks gave us a question asking what the highest number of McNuggets that you can't buy if you can only buy them in packages of 6, 9, and 20. Once you figure that out, Mr. Maks wants us to prove that it works. If we figured it out then we were supposed to continue to working on Accelerated Math.

April 19th, 2010

Today in math, we talked about the 'the law of cosine.' We learned about the time when we need and we would use that procedure the most. The two things are: the 2 sides and the included angle or all 3 sides and no angles. Mr.Maks also gave us 6 different types of the cosine laws. After we were done this lesson we continued to work on our accelerated math; for the remainder of the time.


Friday, April 16, 2010

one hour of trig

Today we started off with mental math. Next we were shown how "Law of Sin" works. which you have to pay attention too understand it.this video will help you it you did not get it the first time. We finish the lesson on Monday.


Tuesday, April 13, 2010

work period

Today we did mental math,accelerated math and Mr.Maks showed us this website where the whole manitoba curriculum is there for your use, it is on the blog somewhere......i do not know where.

Thursday, April 8, 2010

Sub Day

The substitute assigned us up to objective 30. If done, go onto the computer and go into the sub day folder and work on a new lesson when done.

Wednesday, April 7, 2010

to day we did not have mental math
it was a work piored






Tuesday, April 6, 2010

We are learning how to solve angles on right angle triangles. We also learned how to solve the length of the sides on right angle triangles.

Wednesday, March 24, 2010

Today we did mental math and for the rest of the class is a working period. Point to remember: If you know the slope of a parallel line and want to know the perpendicular line simply take the slope of line one (parallel) and flip it giving it a negative sign which gives you line two (perpendicular)
Example: Parallel: a/b
Perpendicular: -b/a

Monday 03/22/2010

Yesterday we did mental math , after that was completed we worked on our progaming in excel or we could work on accelerated math.

Wednesday, March 17, 2010

Catch up Day!

Today we did mental math st. patricks day style. It was a catch up day so we worked on accelerated math or our excel or calculator programs. Mr. Maksymchuk showed us an article from the web where a principal in a school posted a list of names of all the kids failing in the front hall. please comment on what you think about that.

Thursday, March 11, 2010

March 11/10........ In class we did mental math # 11. Mr. Maks went around and checked everyones calculator to see if they now how to program distance and midpoint. Will we were waiting for him to come around we worked on Accelerated Math.

Wednesday, March 10, 2010

Excel







Today there is no metal math. we are talking about Excel. is working with spread sheets. As the bored says is the ti 83 and ti84 are good but excel is better. If you don't have Microsoft Excel go to the J drive then coursework next is math then The Awesomest grade 10 math. Find the file called everything spreadsheet. There will be notes added to this post for anyone who needs it.

Midpoint Programing


Today we talked about our new assignment on programing. We either have to do it alone or with a partner and we have to try and figure out how to make a program for midpoint. He went over our marks in the class and gave us more time to work on accelerated math, or we could start working on our programs. We also need to make a wiki account.

Thursday, March 4, 2010

Day we had a sub

Today we watched those videos on slope they are quite boreing nothing we havent seen before really. the rest of the time we just did accelerated math.

Feb, 26/10

Today we worked on accelerated math and tried to meet our goal of 13 objectives done.

Thursday, February 25, 2010

Something important # 2

Mental math #10 is complete. We had to find our average of our top 8 marks and we got marks for it. If you did bad then don't worry about it because MM isn't worth much of our mark, but still try to do better next time. Accelerated Math is moving along quickly and we are expected to have 13 objectives mastered so start trying to get some done if already weren't.

Calculator Regression







On Feb. 23/10, Mr. Maksymchuk gave us a lessen on Calculator Regression. The big idea was to make a Scatter Plot, than make a Linear rule to create a "Line of Best Fit".

Wednesday, February 24, 2010

Today Mr. Maks taught us how to use the blog more effetivly. After that he helped us work on our Questions if we needed it.

ti-83 Calculator

Go to the J drive (RSFiles (j:))

First Accelerater Math

Today we started off with mental math there was 5 questions. Next Mr. Maksymchuk did a home work check one exercise to see if we know how to do homework. We went over the exercise 1 up till #6 which we will do another day. There will be a recording on today’s post. I will also put a video of what he is talking about. We also when over accelerated math for the first time today. The one we get today is for practice.
