funny math lists

To prepare for the last meeting of this year's Algebra 2 class, I printed out a few lists from this site for my students. The ones I printed -- my favorites, at least of the ones I had time to read -- are Top 10 Math Homework Excuses; e and Pi -- Top ten lists; Murphy's Law and Mathematics; and Ten Commandments of Mathematics (this last one I'd seen before but I figured they hadn't.) I also shared some xkcd humor with them -- this one in particular since we'd been studying functions all year and doing lots of graphing... The handout was very well-received and ended the year on an upbeat note. I loved teaching this class. They were a really great group, well-matched in ability and hard-workers. I'm going to miss them!
