Last full day of camp!:( YAY!!! So to start off the day we learned about Maryam Mirzakhani who was born in Tehran, Iran in May 1977 and still living. Math was very difficult in middle school and she became a professor at Princeton and Stanford University. Maryam won many awards and won the first female Fields Medal in 2014. She is also married and has a daughter named Anahita. After that we did some small critically thinking that you can annoy with friends and parents.:) Then we looked at Probability and Statistics with a packet of problems. We got a fun little word search on Polynomials. Before snack we did some more learning on Pascel's Triangle plus another Math Olymaid 4. Best part of the day was when Catherine Miller Hunt came back and we got to look at virus and bacteria under the microscope and white and red blood cells!!!! Then we went to see Dr. Tom Blackford and he talked about error correcting codes and cryptography. Last but not least we went to the computer lab and wrote on our blogs then had a little contest of who had the best and most creative polynomiography!!!!!!! Which is the picture below and the other pictures I've been posting!!!
