What do you "absolutely value?"

In no particular order, just how they came to mind.  Lets consider them my top 5.

Summer vacation 2016

1.  My family.




2.  Travel.  (Some of my best experiences.....ever.)


                                                                                                     
                                                                                           
3.  Being in Nature.......kind of goes hand in hand with 2.


4.  My own time

5.  Health/Happiness.

Correlation

Data is often collected and analyzed to see if there is a correlation between the results.  Be aware though, the sample size of many collections is often too small to really make a correlation conclusion.

That being said there are things that we can say do have positive correlation (one positive the other positive, or one negative the other negative)

• Babies age and height.  
• Number of minutes working out and calories burned. 
• Amount of Advil taken and amount of Ibprofen in your system. 
• Number of hours worked and amount of paycheck.   
• Number of days into the school year and my caffeine consumption.  (Diet mountain dew, you are my weakness!)

There are things that have negative correlation. (one positive one negative, or vice versa)

• As one increases in age, their flexibility decreases.  
• As the temperature decreases, the heating bills increase.  
• Number of student absences increase, grades decrease. 
• The faster I run, the time it takes to the finish line decreases.  

Name something in your life that either has positive or negative correlation?  

How will things with positive correlation graph?  Negative?  

You are done with the review.......now what?

Try your hand at these.
You will be ready for any summative challenge that comes your way.

Happy Mathing.  

Leave me an answer to one (or all) of them in the comments.

First Day.

The morning started with a brownie for breakfast.  Thank you Miss Weave for it being your birthday!

Then....2nd, 3rd, and 4th hours.  It was so wonderful meeting all of you and doing some math together.  

No picture here, but will in the future.  Please see me if you prefer to not be pictured in this blog.  

At noon, I got to pick up this girl.  

Something that you did on your first day yesterday?
