Our middle school doesn't technically have to give finals. In fact before I got here, our middle schools submitted final grades like two weeks before the end of the school year. I called it a final exam for their sakes because I want them to uderstand the value of working right up until the end of the year. <br><br>These guys invented a clinometer (with minimal direction from me, no doubt) and discovered that you could use the geometric mean to calculate the height. I'll post on that soon...pretty cool stuff. <br><br>How's the end of the year going? I like what I'm reading re: your study guides. May have to pick that one up next year.David Coxnoreply@blogger.com
