Mr. Andre's presentation confused me alot in the beginging. however, when he started to explain the formulas and the tables i began to understand them alot better. I really did enjoy the riddles, becuase i personally think riddles are fun, and it really helped to enforce the ideas and tools we had learned in his lesson. When he was talking about the riddle with the travler and the two doors i was constantly thinking how you could apply the formula into the riddle to end up solving it. Which in turn did happen. The one about monopoly frustrated me becuase it was so simple, but it was an answer that you would never think of. These riddles relate really closely to the story of the Spider and the Black deer because the riddle can also be applied to the formula that we learned in class

senior reflection
I thought that the senior vist was pretty useful, but it was alot of what ive already heard from other students about how difficult its gonna be. A peice of advice that i took from it was to start meeting with my advisor, and how important that is. Im a person that hates asking for advice and help until ive already done what ive wanted to do. It was good to here how helpful the advisors are going to be in the process of writtting the essay, and i think that i will use that tool to my advantage.

Class notes :D

Please post your notes from the Egyptogram lessons. Also, please refelct on the Egyptogram experience. Did you enjoy the exercize? Why or why not? Be sure to comment on the Kpelle reasoning story in the Egptogram packet
I really did enjoy this experiance, i thought it was fun how we tried to figure out the rules, and i thought it was a really good example of how we use logic to figure things out. I also found the Kpelle story very interesting, but then thing that bothered me about was that the story they said to the tibe memebers was a paradox. I felt that if they did not use the charecter of the spider twice they may have had a different result out of the tribes.
