I love that connection to quotation marks, that they both 'live up in the sky'. <br /><br />I have been forgetting to comment on Lisa's poem too. The haiku is perfect. It makes me think that it would be great to have math students write a little poetry defining different terms this month. Thanks to both of you!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6343349006357324362.post-85460450287070637602012-04-05T07:56:49.093-04:002012-04-05T07:56:49.093-04:00This was at first daunting.

The first meaning has to do with being "one who defines, expounds, or interprets." Then, there is the mathematical meaning. I think the haiku ended up someplace in between both meanings. I had to "cheat," as the word appears only in the title. When you only have 17 syllables to work with, it is tricky to give up three to such a word! Here we go:<br /><br />Exponent<br /><br />Rise to the power<br />of the value at your side.<br />You will get bigger. <br /><br />Have a great day, Amy!Poem of the Week - Lisa Vihoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01437291789999751899noreply@blogger.com
