Welcome!

Welcome to Mrs. Cozart's Math blog! I will use this for homework, announcements, reminders and special praises like the "A-Team". (The A-Team will be the students who have gotten an A on a district test. The student's first name and last initial will be posted. If you do not wished to be posted, please just let me know.) I am new to this so if you have suggestions please let me know! Here is a link to a funny math video that I thought you would enjoy showing your friends! Ma & Pa Kettle Math

I'm ready to have a GREAT year with you!
