This week in 8th grade we are beginning our final unit on quadratic functions or parabolas. We started the week off watching a NOVA video about laying siege to a castle using trebuchets. It discussed how a trebuchet works and what makes it effective. For the rest of the week we will be learning about parabolas and quadratic equations and then we will begin to build trebuchet's in class.
No assignments due.
Ask your child what a trebuchet is?
