Student Challenges

There are two types of challenges right now that allow you to earn "blog points." If you are wondering what blog points are good for, you'll just have to assume it is something awesome and take the risk. I won't reveal the rewards until later.

Word of the Week

Firstly, every Monday there will be a "Word of the Week" posted. You earn a blog point by posting a comment that uses the word correctly in a sentence. Spelling, punctuation and grammar count! You can find all the Word of the Week challenges by clicking on "Word of the Week" in the Labels section on the side bar.

Student Challenges

Second, watch for posts called "Student Challenge." These will be puzzles, brain teasers, paradoxes and riddles for you to ponder and solve. To get points for these, you will record your answer on a sheet of paper and deliver it to Mr. Koch at school. Make sure you include your name, grade, and which challenge your are answering. You can find all the Student Challenges by clicking on "Student Challenges" in the Labels section on the side bar.

Good luck!

P.S. The original challenge below has still only been solved by one student.[Hint hint]
