HUMANITIES
Before you add them to your scrapbook, hand in your poems to be checked. You should have three poems:

Acrostic
5 Couplets
Limerick

Click on the links to find more information about how to write each poem.


MATH
We've moved from median and mode to mean as a way to assess data sets. The mean gives us the average number of a data set - useful for teachers who are trying to figure out grades. Oh, they can be mean!

Steps to find the mean:
1. Count how many numbers are in the data set.
6,4, 12,8,10 - five numbers

2. Tally the data set
30

3. Divide the total by how many numbers in the set.
30/5 = 6

Voila! You have your mean!
