Desman
Reflection: I really enjoyed this project because it was fun to watch the face I created using math equations come together. Also, I had never used ellipses or parabolas before so it was fun to get to learn those new concepts.

Show me the Pi
Challenging: For me, the most challenging part about this project was just putting in the data to the graph because I had to be extremely focused in order to avoid not making any mistakes.
Surprising: I was surprised that when doing the slider on my graph that it was similar to pi.
Interesting: I think it was interesting that no matter what circle we measured, the circumference divided by the diameter is always similar or close to pi.

Pythagorean Spiral Project
I really enjoyed doing this project because doing the calculations helped me learn how to master this math term. It was also fun and entertaining to get to draw all of the triangles and see the pattern forming in my calculations.

Desmos House
Reflection
In this project I got a lot of practice on learning how to create formulas that will turn into lines. I learned how make formulas for horizontal lines, vertical lines, positive and negative slopes, and lots of other things. Overall, I felt that this project was a fun way to learn and understand the concepts of lines and slopes on Desmos.

Handshakes
Conjecture: Emillie, Alden, Claire, and I thought that it would take 16 handshakes for us to all do ours with each other
Drawing:
Thoughts: Our conjecture was wrong. It only took us 6 handshakes to shake everybody. I had a ton of fun making my handshake up.

Silly Story ( If I get all my homework done, then I drink milk)
If I get all my homework done, then I watch Netflix.
If I watch Netflix, then it puts me in a good mood.
If I am in a good mood, then I bake cookies.
If I bake cookies, then I eat the cookies.
If I eat the cookies, then I drink milk.
