I love the idea of asking other class blogger's to come up with math word problems to share. It was great seeing all the different schools that participated and shared their ideas with the class. All the math word problems that were created were great! Keep up the good work class!<br /><br />-Jill LazzariJill Lazzarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17139640335110799440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633466533683944100.post-33264143258291590172011-11-10T13:28:04.157-08:002011-11-10T13:28:04.157-08:00Dear Mrs. Yollis and bloggers,

I love the way schools from all over the world have the ability to interact with the class. I am originally from Spartanburg, SC so I really loved seeing Miss Tripp's class project ideas. Is hers a class that you all collaborate with regularly, or was this your first time? Your blog is a huge inspiration for me as a future educator! <br />Sincerely,<br />Frances JuddFrances Juddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04537128773753768979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633466533683944100.post-82225758215023744702011-11-09T09:27:21.434-08:002011-11-09T09:27:21.434-08:00Mrs. Yollis and class,
