this is a youtube video of the demolition you just have to take my word about the 1.63 seconds." Last Friday we talked about Nana's Chocolate milk and this is where last Friday's quiz can from, the egg problem at the bottom. these are some things from Khan academy that may be helpful, this , and this, and some practice problems Mr. Booth also makes his own videos, he reports that students loved seeing his own children in the video, this is motivating: this is a clip of me playing the Product Game with my Daughter Here are some practice problems, just push pause before I solve them and then check your answer against mine.Practice The divisibility test is something to know.
