January 14th/09

The math exam is coming up fast, and I thought I should blog once more before the exam. Today we did a review on what we learned in the beginning of the school year and what we should expect to see on the exam. I really need to freshen up on Sequences and Series, and Design and Measurement.

January 8th/10

So this is the first blog since the year changed to 2010! This month has been very busy for me, english exam, and plus trying to keep up with all my other classes. The math exam is on the 18th and the 19th so lets hope I will do alright! I am going to start studying tonight and maybe make a attempt to work at my formula sheet. We are learning a new unit called Periodic Functions and I know it is going to be a very rushed unit so I don't know if I will do so well on it..

December 10th/09

We started a new unit called Statistics. Today we got taught Normal Distributions. I actually found this lesson, to be fairly easy and understandable. I am already getting nervous for my math exam and I think one of the major units that I did not understand fully was Probablity. Probabilty has always gone right past my head and I never can understand it or do it when it comes to tests or whichever. I will have to do some of the provincial exam booklets and prepare myself for the exam.

November 30th/09

So I guess since I haven't blogged since last week, I thought I should blog something. I handed in my vectors project on Thursday, and I think I did well. I found it hard though to try and not use pronouns in the introductory and conclusion paragraphs...weird! Anyways, now in math, we are still learning about Probability. I feel like I haven't really learned anything in this unit so far. Like I have had so much work thrown on me, so I am just not use to having many things to do at once and yet focus on a unit that we are currently doing. I am doing accelerated math though, so that must be a good sign! I have 4 tests this week, so I am trying not to stress out about this! Probability is pretty straight forward, but there are some things yet to learn, so we'll see how it goes! I think this is one long blog post, so i am going to stop. now.

November 23rd/09

So i haven't blogged for 10 days, so I figured that I should. We started a new unit called Probability. The Vector Project is due this friday and my project has changed from a hiking trail to going from my place to merves. I already have a start on it, but I will have to buckle down this week and get it done. We learned about Fundamental Counting Principal and Factorial Notation today. In factorial notation there is two main parts of it...Permutation and Combination.

Permutation is ordering of objects in which ORDER matters. example: phone number

Combination is odering of objects in which ORDER doesn't matter. example: pizza toppings, card hands.

Today we had a work period again to work on the excercise sheets. I am getting better and better with practice. I should start getting a start on my vector project too. My idea right now is to have a hiking trail which you can go five different ways and end up in the same place.

Today we had a work period to work on our Excerise questions. I think I figured out how to work with Euklid and vectors today, which makes me happy!
