Hi Mrs. Burke,
I liked the websites! I think it's pretty cool that one girl broke three records in folding a piece of paper, in one day! I guess this proves that nothing is impossible!
See you tomorrow,

Mrs. Burke--
For some reason the links to the websites aren't working for me. I'll try them at break tommorow and share my thoughts with you then.

Hey Mrs. Burke,
I learned that it does not matter how thick the paper is, you should be able to fold it the same amount of times. See you tomorrow.
I just looked at the website with britney. Its neat how she folded that sheet 12 times. See you tomorrow!

I CAN POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Mrs. Burke,
I can post now, so I know you are all super duper excited that i am back on the blog. I am ready for class tomorrow. That paper folding girl is ripped.
Dear Mrs. Burke,
I learned about the Geometric Sequence from the first website and from the second, I learned that Britney set a world record as a junior in high school. That's pretty cool! On the first website, they mentioned a checkerboard-rice problem. I think I saw a problem like that in our math book! See you later!

Hi Mrs. Burke,
sorry for commenting now, I totally forgot yesterday! I learned about a Geomtric Sequence. I didn't actually know it had a name!
One the 2nd site, I didn't understand limits. Can you explain them in class today!
See you later!
