Students in Mr. Filipek's 7th grade math class learned about percent increase, decrease, and error through a free throw shooting activity. The class took two attempts at making a basket, and that data was recorded to determine if there was an increase or decrease in their accuracy. Students then used this to learn about and find the percent increase or decrease between their attempts. They also compared their results to the guess that was made to determine the percent error of the guess.
The Sisseton School District Native American Parent Committee meeting will be held Wednesday, February 12, from 4:30 - 5:00 p.m. in the Sisseton HS/MS Multipurpose Room.
