Benjamin Banneker and Practice

Taking a break from Jacobs, we read a story about Benjamin Banneker, an African American mathematician and scientist. This is normally a weekly routine for first year math students, so it was a bit bittersweet to be read to again. :)

We also worked on just some simple mean, median, mode, and range problems that I would like the kids to finish over the weekend. I'll get that posted up on class docs in a bit. Have a great weekend!
