5D Mon- Tue WU      Powerpoint for the week

Yes, you have long periods, twice this week and I wouldn't want you bored so I will not give a 30 point test at the end of the week but ask that you use your time wisely.  So, a terrific project to show what you know is to design a powerpoint for the week to help demonstrate something you find interesting in mathematics.  Yes -- you can be creative.  Pick your own topic as long as it is related to math and you talk about mathematics in your powerpoint.  Pick a topic that is of interest.  Some ideas are listed below.  I require only the following:

This is a great opportunity to show me what you know in math, what you think is interesting, to find something that connects to math.  It is very open ended and should be your opportunity to be creative.  Give it a try.

Ideas for topics:   shapes of animals,  who invented multiplication,  how is math different in another country,  how is math used in cooking,  how does one get into stocks,  how do you look up stocks,  what is a bond,  what is the dollar worth,  what is the tallest mountain,  how does the gear ratio in a car change the speed,  what does the numbers on nails refer to
