Asking 8th Graders

Here is your chance, before they leave ask them anything you want. Today you are to post three questions.

Question one needs to be regarding success in the 8th grade.
Question two needs to be regarding 8th grade Honors Math class.
And the final question is anything you want.

Make sure that no one has asked any of your questions. Each question needs to be unique.

Welcome back!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations on your completion of AIMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today you will be completing two tasks. The first task is to present your perspective on AIMS assessments. The second is a math problem. Be sure to fully explain your answer, that means show how you got your answer. If you use symbolic notation understand that an equation is a tool to support proof. Explain what each of the parts of your equation represent and why they are important or why you have considered these factors.

PART 1

Here are questions I would like you to address:

1. Do you like AIMS?
2. Does AIMS show what you personally know?
3. If you wanted to demonstrate what you have learned this year - how would you go about
proving your new mathematical understandings?

PART 2 - THE PROBLEM

Fred and Frank are two fitness fanatics on a run from A to B. Fred

runs half the way and walks the other half. Frank runs half the time,

and walks the other half. The two run at the same speed and walk at

the same speed.

Who finishes first?
