7th Grade Math & Pre-Algebra - The Olympic Activity for today focused on Travel and Medals.  The travel portion included questions for students to calculate how long a direct flight from New York to Sochi would take, given a price for a flight calculate the cost per mile and calculating the cost for a family of five.  The Medals part of the activity provided information on the percentage make-up of each metal and the value.  Students were asked to determine how many of each medal was needed given the total number of medals and how much it would cost an organizing committee to buy medals for the games.  NO HW.
