So...

We've been learning about percentages, and how to find them in math. Of course, a perfect way to teach this is using shooting percentages!

So, the students got a chart of basketball players and their shooting, and had to make them into percentages...

As a visual aid, I drew each player as we did the problem.

Thought I would share... can you name those players?

I think you missed one. Answers in stealth mode as well.

Number 50 in the middle has to be Hansblahblah. The bugged out eyes give it away.

Ash,

Your rendition of (Tyler Hansbrough?, #50) makes him look like he's got exophthalmos. I'm not sure if I spelled that correctly. = big eyes.

And your point is...?

:)

BTW, it was very satisfying, for some reason, to explain that Jordan is not only a huge cigar smoker, but also a massive gambler.

Wow! I could swear that while I was looking at the picture, the guy in the middle just traveled.

What are you talking about?! He was hacked while in the act of flipping the ball toward the rim while flailing to the ground... 10 free throws for #50.
