My name is Cassie. I'm a senior at FHS. This webpage is for educational purposes involving math. Algebraic Connections to be exact. The math department at FHS is neat because the teachers are really fun and dedicated to helping you learn.
Algebraic Connections is kind of like Applied Algebra (hands-on kind of algebra), it shows how algebra ties to the outside world. It involves using the 5 models (Linear, Quadratic, Exponential, Absolute Value, Logarithmic), the 4 verification methods, and lots of other neat stuff. If you want to find out more about Algebraic connections, you can email me or Mr. Young (email'below). Here's a few photos from a project we did in Algebraic Connections. This was the ball bounce 3 project that we did a while back. We made a graph of how high the ball bounced .
In
these pics, we are bouncing the ball to see how high it bounces and using
a CBL program to measure the height and bounce of the ball. The 2 guys
in the pics are my partners for the project.
