  1. Good Job Kyia! I really like that you added pictures of your own instead getting some from Google. I also like that you put up another way to find the answer and showed ho you got it instead of just putting up the answer. I liked that you made important words and your questions bold. I admire that you included the 3 important things that we learned today at the top. I think that this scribe would be better if you added some colours to your post and a video but overall, you did a great job. Keep up the good work (:

  2. Hi Kyia. I really like your scribe post. I like how that you explained it by using pictures. I like how that You showed it 2 ways instead of 1. In my suggestion you should have put colour and make the font bigger of the other words. You should also have put a video so it can help some people who don't really get it. You should also put a link so that people can have fun. I like how that you showed how to get the answer. I like how that you bold the words and putted the discount, sale price and total price. For the 2nd way at the 2nd one its really hard to see the number.
    GOOD JOB KYIA :)

  3. Great job Kyia, I liked how you took the time to write it out and then show it to us. The way you found the tax was awesome. Your way was easier. I still found the same answer but using a different method. For example the 2nd question, I found 5% of $285 (0.05 x $285 = $14.25) Then I took $285 and subtracted $14.25 where I get $270.75. Then I find 12% of $270.75 which is $32.49. I then added $270.75 to $32.49 where I get $303.24.
    Some colour in your text would have been good and a link or a video too but besides that you did a excellent job!!!

  4. Nice job Kyia! I liked how you had pictures that explained the question, in a way. I also liked how all your answers are correct and most of your pictures are clear too. But in question 2, about the ipod in "second way", I can't really tell what you're multiplying 1.12 by, I can't tell what the number is. Next time you should also put a "$" sign after your answer, like what Mr. Harbeck told us in class today. For the second way in #1, I was wondering why you multiplied 1.12 in the end. Is it the taxes ? I also liked how you had your questions bolded, although you might want to put some color next time. You might also want to add a link and/or a video about finding percents in a number. Good job Kyia! I'm so proud of you. (':

  5. Great job Kyia I like how you added some pictures to show how you got your answer also how you made your pictures easy to understand and I also really like how you added the definitions for the key words like discount Although a problem I had is seeing the part with the white on your second way overall great job just don't forget to add a video next time.

  6. Good Job Kyia, I liked how you put 2 ways to show you work and I also liked how you did your own pictures. The most important thing is that you put the 3 words that we learned. Also, for the ratio tables that you did, dont forget to put "$" sign to represent money. Next time , you should explain everything you did in words, so other people would be able to understand what you did to get that answer. Overall, good job BUDDY. Keep it up.

  7. Great Job Kyia! I like the pictures to show how you get your answer . I like the 2 ways you showed your work. You didnt really put a $ to representthe money. Next time you should explain your words more so some people understand it. Anyway Good Job.

  8. Nice job Kiya. I like the pictures because there easy to read, I also like that you showed two ways to get there and also you put dollar sign, but next time explain better, but everything else was very great.

  9. Good job Kyia! I loved how you used bold fonts for the most important information we needed to know and also how you took pictures and instead of one way, you showed two ways which I thought was very effective for making a proper blog post. Also, I liked how you added some extra work (the definitions we learned) and it helped me because it reminded me what they were. If you didn't put the definitions, I would have probably got tangled up and ask myself how you got the answers. Everything went out swell, but the only suggestions I would say is to put the "$" sign after your answers, put a game link, or even a helpful video to make others fully understand the topic of your blog post. Keep it up! (=
