asymptotes

Since August this year, I have been going to a public school in Cebu together with some volunteers from a private high school . We give Math and English tutorials to some Grade 4 & 5 students.  Every week is a good experience for me, since, by talking to these kids, I get to practice my elementary Cebuano without fear of committing mistakes. But my experience this Saturday was special. I was tutoring Math. The topic was conversion of decimals, fractions and percent.  I began by tackling the concept of percent in Bisaya to them. Then I thought of translating "percent" to Bisaya so that they can understand it more.  I translated it as "kada gatos". I was overjoyed when I noticed how they immediately got the idea of percent afterwards. Then I wanted to teach them how to convert percent, decimals and fractions. I thought of the table below then began giving them easy drills.  Of course most of them got the correct answers.  They were even racing against each...

I heard that there's a new town in Camiguin. It  definitely fits the new Philippine tourism slogan: I'm glad you visited this post. Tengkyu, Camiguin.

Note: You need to know Tagalog/Filipino to appreciate this proof.  Problem: Prove the following: log 2   = z   n Proof Expanding the Left Hand Side of the equation: log two = z n Substituting phonetically log tu = z n Expanding the Right Hand Side of the equation... log tu = zzzzzzz.... Using the commutative property: tu log = zzzzzzz.... Q.E.D.
