Burning Building is my math content site. To explain the name... Well, in 7th grade, (2000 -
2001 schoolyear) I was in Mrs. Van Horn's math class. Mrs. Van Horn loves to make fun of
people, but in particular, she made fun of one of the other math teachers, Mr. Sieger.
Well, it just so happens that one day she was making fun of him whilst we learned the
pythagorean theorem. She said... "If a ladder is 10 feet away from a 40 foot tall
burning building, and Mr. Sieger is on top of it, how long does the ladder have to be
in order to save Mr. Sieger... that is, assuming we wanted to save him?" It was
incredulously funny. Well, maybe not to you, but to a lot of the class. And, you know
what? Mr. Sieger was my math teacher the next year. *imagines him actually burning on top
of a building, and is very happy*
I finally have most of the pages up! And by most, I mean
everything is linked and has a bit of content! :D I do still need
to find the Survivor 2006 packet I made at community
study and get that up...
