SEE YOU AT OUR BANQUET!

If you're not playing the game, sign in: tinyurl.com/maoapril22

If you are playing the game, get in groups!

Before our team contest today, we will have another short and fun way to get points!! (still sign in if you will participate in this activity but not the team contest)

10 Activity!

The challenge is to create the numbers 1-10 using only 1,9, and any operations. You can use 4 functions, exponents, parenthesis, factorials, etc.

For example, if we wanted to create 1-5 using 2 and 8:

1 = 8/(2x2x2)

2 = sqrt(8/2)

3 = (2^2)!/8

4 = 8/2

5 = 2 + cube root(8)

If you get 5/10 correct, you can receive 0.5 pt! If you get all 10 correct, you can receive 1 pt!

Team Contest!!

Form groups of 4 or less and write your names on your envelopes :)
