Phase 1 - Mathematician |

Step One: Gather Supplies.
A good mathematician always has all of his/her materials ready. Make sure you
have a pencil, lots of looseleaf paper, a ruler/meter stick, a brightly colored
pen/pencil, and a calculator. In addition, you will need to open the Archimatics
worksheet. This will be where you input your answers. You may either
answer right on the word file or print it out and answer by hand. It is a

you a printed out copy instead.
