“Winners in the Roll Down the Brim contest at Tom Hinton’s have to answer skill testing questions in order to claim the grand prizes of cars, TVs, or $5000 cash. You and a friend decide to try some of the questions, but you keep getting different answers. For each question, decide which answer is correct, and explain why the other answer happened.”


Which is right?
What went wrong?
a) Is the value of 6 + 8 ÷ 2 − 5 equal to 5, or is it equal to 2?


b) Is the value of 7 × 4 + 12 ÷ 2 equal to 20, or is it equal to 34?


c) Is the value of 12 − 6 + 9 ÷ 3 equal to 5, or is it equal to 9?


d) Having calculated the value of 16 + 4 × 3 ÷ 6 + 4 × 3 , you got an answer of 30. But your friend got 42. Which answer is correct? Explain how each answer was obtained.


   
  1. AND! Want to work on reading a clock? Here’s a challenge. You may have to back up a bit and play with a clock… really get to know how they show time.

  1. Photography or Drawing!!
Black and white (greyscale) is beautiful. Play with it!




  1. Here’s today’s big computer challenge. I think we can make spellquiz work now. Follow the link, click your name, and use your last name (all lower case) as the password (except Jacob and Fin, who I’ve emailed).

I DON’T CARE WHAT GRADE LEVEL YOU WORK AT!! But do play around and find a level that is DOABLE and a LITTLE CHALLENGING. Thanks!

Enjoy your weekend!
