Algebra (Graham) We did a basketball problem solving exercise today. Our focus this year in math is to help our students become excellent problem solvers. I have attached a copy of the exercise, if you are interested. We started section 4.4 today-didn't get very far. No official homework tonight, however, I did assign some more problem solving work that is due on Monday.
