The other day as Zach and I were doing homework, I needless to say got very frustrated and sad at the same time.
Math TAKS is coming up on April 8th.... that just so happens to be what we were working on. He was working on word problems, okay you say that is not so bad mom. Well, next time he is doing these I will call you. The paper of course had what TAKS objectives that this particular homework paper was tackling. These problems purposely throw these kids of, either in the word problem or the answers. I can handle challenge them. I am rambling...let me get back to the issues. As we were working, Zach was not having to figure out the answers mathematically, but what math sentence was that would solve this problem. Got it? So, instead of figuring out how much change Sally will get back, he had to figure out the math sentence that would best solve. Not the actual figure. I do not know about you but, when I was in school that would not go over...I had to figure the change.
I did not mention my Landon much last post. I am thinking that he has been with me for...well all his life, he needs to see a school and classroom setting. He will be going to kindergarten at out elementary around out house. He is very excited and I have enroll him in few weeks. I just felt that someone would think I am left him out. I have not.
