Make sure you click on the post heading above to see the whole post. The week 1 bonus task is simply to complete a “nerdle.” It is an online game that many of you have played. It is an offshoot of the popular word game called wordle. However, you have a very specific task to complete. You must go to “nerdle replay” … you can simply search “nerdle replay” on your browser. When you get there you will see a dropdown arrow for which nerdle game you’d like to play. You want to play “classic.” You will also see a dropdown arrow for the date of the nerdle you’d like to play. You can change the date. Please choose one of the following 4 dates. 1. 3/14/22 2. 3/14/23 3. 3/14/24 4. 6/17/24 Those are important math dates ie. the last 3 “Pi days” and Day 1 of the Mathwiz league (a very important day in math history!). If you complete any of the nerdles in only 1 or 2 lines you will “give yourself” 5 points. If you complete one in 3 lines you get 4 points. Complete one in 4 lines = 3 points 5 lines = 2 points and 6 lines = 1 point. You can try all 4 of the dates but you can only “count” your best one. So if you complete the 3/14/22 nerdle in 4 lines… but then you complete the 3/14/24 nerdle in 3 lines. Then you “get” 4 points for getting the 3/14/24 nerdle in only 3 lines. You don’t get points for the other nerdle. Then you go to the bonus problems that you will see posted. The answer to the bonus problems this week will always be 7. So if you earned 4 bonus points then answer 4 of the bonus problems with the answer 7 but don’t answer the 5th bonus problem. Email a screenshot or picture of your successful nerdle. In order to keep our usual math wiz email from getting tangled up with bonus submissions… please email your screenshot or picture to tarnowskip746@gmail.com
