Hi! I'm Shannon. I have created this blog to help support 8th graders doing math in Williston Central School. All 8th graders in our school complete an 8th grade challenge that involves helping our community and increasing our own knowledge.
The blog will include; general resources for algebra, resources to help with specific assignments, a hosting site for conversations about specific topics and assignments in our 8th grade math class.
