Welcome to the Cunningham Clan and to my webpage!
My name is Mrs. Boucher, and I am very excited to be your math teacher this year.
This will be my 6th year teaching math at BEMS but my 39th year as a teacher in this district. (I don't feel that old!) I may have taught your siblings (or maybe even your parents!) if they were in the Zetland, Kennedy, or Baillie Clans.
I live in Buxton with my husband and my 15-year-old Labradoodle named Lani. We have been very blessed with a daughter and son (who are BE graduates), a son-in-law and daughter-in-law, five grandchildren (who call me Mimi), and 2 granddogs! (You'll be hearing lots about them this year)
In my spare time, I enjoy horseback riding, taking walks with my dog, scrapbooking, and cross stitching to name a few. You'll see when you walk into my classroom that I'm a collector of red trucks (or any color really!)
Here are some snapshots of my life...
Here are some digital resources!

Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a distribution which can be described by its center, spread, and overall shape.
(Different Lessons for Standard)
Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how its values vary with a single number.

HOW TO PLAY:
(Before class)
decide what you would like to review.
come up with at least 10 questions.
decide how many minutes each question gets.
decide how many points goes to each question.
(During class)
students get into groups of 5.
students choose what number they will be from 1-5.
pose one question at a time to the class.
set the timer depending on what is needed.
all students must show their work.
roll the die when timer goes off.
the student whose number gets rolled must show their work to the facilitator.
