1. the title of the post that i chose is Multiplying and Dividing Polynomials. This was posted by Jeff R.
2. The post was about multiplying and diving polynomials. It also explained the different ways to multiply and divide polynomials. For example, in multiplying polynomials, you can use the tictactoe method, algetiles or the distributive property. And it clearly explained long division and its steps of doing it. It also had an extra lesson at the very end, finding the area of an "irregular" rectangle or square.
3. According to the people who inducted this post in the hall of fame, he has done a terrific job in explaining the topic. Also, he clearly stated the different steps of solving it that's why even though, you weren't there, you would still understand what the lesson is all about. He has also used very creative and colorful visuals.
4. I strongly agree with the comments given by some people regarding this post. He really explained the topic in a very creative and effective manner. He also used some visuals in order to clearly explain the whole lesson. This post should really be included in the Scribe Post Hall of Fame.
