On Monday, we learned about number systems such as binary and hexadecimal.  We applied the algorithms that we were taught in elementary school in the decimal system to binary (base 2) and hexadecimal (base 16).  After we learned about converting between number bases, we played a game called "Around the World".  We had to convert a binary number into hexadecimal and had a one-on-one challenge with each other  The person who made it back to their seat was the champion of the challenge.  Congratulations to Annie to won "Around the World"!
