Week of April 21st- 25th

Imagine that you are prospecting diamonds in the barren outback of western Australia. You are told that you can claim any piece of land that can be surrounded by 60 meters of fencing. How should you arrange your fencing in order to enclose the maximum area possible?

In our new unit we are exploring Quadratic Relationships. We will be making sketches, and creating tables and graphs to demonstrate what a quadratic relationship is.

Binders were due last week and several people are yet to hand them in...
We have homework on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

There are only 2 weeks left in the marking period so make sure everything is in order.
