Easter Week Teaser

Before getting into this week's teaser, our super teaser from last week is over and Kai was the only winner. I will bring her $10 gift certificate at Subway to school on  Monday.

The city without streets is Venice, Italy. For a panoramic 360 degree look at Venice, click here. Let the picture load and click full-screen. It's an interesting way to see places.

For this week, the first three people to correctly e-mail me the name of the city and country will receive the usual hour's worth of free computer time.

Since Easter is the celebration of Christ's rise from the dead, we head to a world famous city where a huge statue of Jesus overlooks the city and bay where it is located.  Name the city and country it is in.


Good Luck; send your entries to v6math@gmail.com

This Week's Super Teaser

The staff, management, and employees here at V6 Math world headquarters have gone absolutely crazy!!!  For this week's SuperTeaser, they are giving away a $10 gift certificate at Subway (eat fresh) to the first two people who successfully answer this weeks question and follow all the instructions doing so. 

Instead of simply emailing me with the correct answer, the winners are going to create a short (at least 15 seconds) video using their webcam. On this video, you are going to give me the name of the city, the country it is in, and one fact about the place--Any fact. You will then simply save the file and attach it to an email sent to the usual place: v6math@gmail.com. 

Is that the easiest ten bucks you ever earned or what?? Don't say no, because you know it is.  Alright, here's some pics of this weeks world famous place, the city without streets:


See the post before this one for making videos using your webcam. Good Luck, and Josh Matt, if you're thinkin' Arby's, we can do something about that too.

Last Week's Winners: Kai & Josh

Congratulations Kai & Josh for correctly identifying last week's Tuesday Teaser as the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France. Here's a couple more shots of it before moving on to this weeks teaser.

Remember, winners receive a free hour of computer time during class whenever they feel like it.

For this week's teaser, another world famous landmark. If you don't know the name of the place, you can say what city it's in; that's good enough for a winner.
Did you read last week's post about the program TinEye? Check it out for a guaranteed win.

Tuesdy's Teaser & More

Congratulations first to Kai for correctly identifying last week's famous structure as the Golden Gate Bridge. For that, Kai gets an hour of computer time in class whenever she wants.. And to Joshua for identifying the Google Earth picture as the Marianas Resort in Marpi.  Notice the Go Kart track on the left?  Joshua earned 10 extra credit points on his test today--like he needs the extra points.

Today's Teaser is another shot from space using Google Earth. The first three who email me correct name of the country highlighted in yellow get an hour of free computer time, whether finished with the work or not. Here it is:

..As Seen From Space

Today's Bonus Question comes from space and Google Earth. If you don't have Google Earth, you can get it here. Somewhere on Saipan. Where am I? First three correct emailers receive 10 Xtra Points on the test Tuesday. (No more new cars to give away) Give the name of the place, not just a description.

Tuesday's Teaser....

...few will enter, fewer will win.

Remember, the first three to email me the correct answer (address on the right side), will earn a period of computer time whenever you want.  Here's the teaser:

You are downloading your new favorite movie, Dora's Ballet Adventure (movie trailer
can be found here,  the Sticker Coloring Activity Book here). After 11 minutes, you have downloaded 32mb. The whole movie is 704 mb. At this rate, how many hours will it take to download the entire movie. That's it. Do it, get a free hour of computer time.


Apologies for being absent today. Got hit by some bug, got up at 4:30 pm. Anyway, tomorrow is Wednesday's Websites. A bunch of links to web sites that are less schoolish and more funish or useful.
