Week Eleven

Hi Guys,

Wow, has the time flown by. I have a few lame excuses for not doing a better job of keeping up on the blog, etc.:

1) I just finished the Mesa State Math and Science Summer Institute. Basically that means I have had 8 hours of class each day for the past two weeks followed by hours of homework. I have a new appreciation for you guys!

2) Jasmine turned 4 on August 1st. Planning and executing the birthday party were as difficult as the class!

Anyway, we are still on "moderation mode" with the blog until we can get a secure sign up sheet (when we get back into class), so just post your comments and I will pass them along each day. I know it takes most of the fun out of it, but at least we can still keep each other posted on what we are doing.

I hope everyone is having a great summer and is beginning to get just the tiniest bit excited about getting back to school. It took me until last week to get that little itch. Hopefully you all have it!

Oh, and you should have the #10's done by this Saturday.

Adios,

Cookie

Here are the changes that I know of:

Ms. Atwood has moved to Fruita Middle to teach 6th grade and we have hired Ms. Brumback (not Mr. Gregg) to fill her position. Mr. Eidinger did take a position at GJHS, but I don't know who took his place. To my knowledge Ms. ReQua is still here. Mr. Schmalz is now the principal at Appleton Elementary. There have been a few changes in 8-1 and 8-2, and a few changes in 6-2, etc., but I'll let you figure all of those out when y ou get back (that is, if your plans to move away fall through).

hi every1 i missed u guys! ok so i have so much to tell u (i was gone to montana and such for like a week if no1 noticed).

ok so first things first i was channel surfing in our awesome condo (it was like 5 bedroom 4 bath and i couldnt believe we got to stay in it, we wouldnt have been able to afford it except that it was paid for so my dad could go to his medical conference [which was about gross stuff like how to slit someones throat if their tongue swells so they cant breathe or if their how to safety pin their tongue to their lower lip to do cpr mtm] and we didnt get to stay there long cuz idk and we moved to a smaller one that was still awesome. so neway back to the channel surfing) and i went past animal planet (which i never do) and guess what?? THE TOUR WAS ON! ya and i watched it kind of except i was half asleep not cuz it was boring but cuz it was like 12 and i had to watch it with subtitles and whoever translated must have been french cuz it never made sense .







we saw some grizzlies and elk and stuff in yellowstone and i got lyn like 10 postcards. but i might keep them cuz theyre awesome.\




oh and i got really bad food poisoning in wyoming. it stank, literally. we had to stop like every 20min so i could puke my guts out all over the road. (i hope no foxes or coyotes or stuff tried to go eat it and got hit by a car) ya and i wasnt able to apreciate the view but i got so much practice i can now aim where it goes. so ya. if u get on my nerves then ya. ha ha jk. love yall and so glad to be back w/ friends (tho i did make some friends in montana and there was a hot guy in the survival class i took but i did miss every1 neway)

Savannita con una cola said...

WHAT!! ms atwood LEFT!! no she cant do that to us after we lost gregg!! i hope formi stays or i am gonna blow up the school (when no1 is in it of course)

crazy chica said...

So Atwood is gone?!?!?!?! Who on earth is Ms. Brumback, I bet you that I will call her Brumbra for the longest time!!!! At this years fair I got Reserve Grand Champion Home Grown Market Lamb, it means that my lamb was second overall with the lambs that have been raised in Mesa County. I sold that lamb for 1050 dollars, sweet huh?!?!?!

TTYL,
Kelsey

Emily said...

crazy chica said...

sooooo... i am board and i am wondering what problwms we are supposed to have done i am going back to school shopping today

GGGRRRRR savannah......jk and when i was in yellowstone i was sick but i had a bucket in the car so we didnt have to stop i am sorry :(

i am going to the school tomaarrow and i will see the ugly tile and post after i see it

bye for now

ps i am hungry i dont know why i said that but ohwell

Emily said...

Liberty I got your sand when are you going to school tomarrow?

Mr.Cook nice picture in the paper.
The new kid in our class is my neighbor if anyone cares.

♥.laura.♥ said...

hey cook. how do u do number 11 on the 1st page?
it says find the lcm of 18xy^2 and 15y^3...???

Mr. Cookie said...

Moa - Thanks for the compliment! Remind me to tell you the story behind the interview at the college and the newspaper article. I was ambushed. :-)

Laura - To find the lcm of 18xy^2 and 15y^3...first, remember LCM is where you are making both monomials happy, so first you break them down in factor trees so that 18xy^2 is 2*3*3*x*y*y and 15y^3 is 3*5*y*y*y then you make sure that both are happy. You need one 2 to make the first monomial happy. You need two 3's to make the second monomial happy. You also need one 5 for the second monomial. You need one x or the first monomial won't be happy and you need three y's or the second monomial won't be happy. When you put them together you have 2*3*3*5*x*Y*Y*Y which simplifies to 90XY^3. I hope that made sense. If it doesn't give me a call.

Neigh and Liberty - Nice vomiting stories. Really entertained me with the cool visuals.

Savannita con una cola said...

yo welcome cookie. oh ya and good job bein in the paper.

Emily said...

PSPS:ok i am SOOOOOO confused!!!! i dont know who our teachers are gonna be and i dont know what enritchment is!!!

Jessah said...

r we suposed to bring all of our stuff(u know like note books and stuff)on the first day or can we bring a little bit at a time?and i still dont know how many problems we need to do.

Mr. Cookie said...

Hey Guys,

To answer a few questions:

1) You should be through the #12's and should bring the packet the first day.

2) You will get lockers from me on the first day (I think I have you first block), so I wouldn't bring too much to carry around until then. Just pencil, paper, folders, etc. We will give out a supply list in each class.

I hope you all have had a great summer. I still have some work to do tomorrow to get ready for you all! I'm anxious to see everyone!

Jessah said...

ok so i know how many problems we are supposed to do but i still dont know what "enrtitchment"is or who brumback is.so im still confused(like always)just not as much.oh and do we still have ms,formisano?cause social studies wasnt on my schedule.even though im dreading school i cant wait to see u all.
