The OOMIPPYEO

Ah, the OOMIPPYEO.

Today we've begun our last unit in Pre-Algebra -- the dreaded and infamous geometry unit. :) And in this unit, we study the area, perimeter, surface areas, and volumes of many different shapes.

The OOMIPPYEO stands for "One of the Most Important Pieces of Paper You'll Ever Own" -- and that's because all of the formulas that they'll need to know are on that piece of paper. And they'll need to memorize all 16 of them. (Gasp!!!) Yup, it's that time again. A little memorization never hurt anyone.

Tomorrow will be making of notecards and practicing finding the area and perimeter of some basic shapes.
