    Caught you.

  2. Jean in Newcastle

    You stole 180 cookies!

     

    Rules of the game: if you find this (anyone except the cookie thief themselves) then post here to say "I caught the cookie thief! BUT... someone else took 181 cookies from the cookie jar!" That way we know this player has been caught and we'll look on another profile. Next, copy this entire post and paste it onto someone else's profile (player must have more than 100 posts and must have been active in the last month.) Lastly, change the numbers so each increase by one. It will be easier to track that way. Please post your findings in the thread entitled SOMEONE STOLE A COOKIE! Forum Game. Have Fun!

    Two very different things, in my book, but we participate in both. Our homeschool group is about 100 families, loosely joined by a basic statement of faith. We have a Yahoo group for chatting, monthly meetings for moms, and lots of field trips and activities initiated by all members. From within that group, I found half a dozen moms who are teaching a particular Apologia science book next year. We will be meeting weekly to do the experiments, reviews, and tests as a co-op.

    Excellent suggestions all - thank you so much!

    This would be a middle or high school course, part vocabulary, part roots program, plus mapping and Roman history, maybe some mythology, too. Any ideas? Or parts to pull from to make up a course? Thank you for any ideas! (Target student is a 14yo girl who made it through PL, LC1, and half of LC2, who doesn't really want to continue much farther with Latin, but would tolerate a class like this if it would get Mom off her back. :D )

    14yo daughter is reading Twilight (she wants to see if it is as bad as she has heard) and The Other Side of Dawn, book 7 of John Marsden's Tomorrow series.

    Thanks all! Is that a first? 100% in agreement on the poll? lol

    See, that's where I am. I've only heard of "back", but recently read "backed", and that could make sense also. So I was curious. :)

    back or backed by popular demand Curious minds want to know. :)

    If you ignore the parenthesis, the answer would be 12. N-(N+12) N-N+12 = 12 Following the order of operations, it is -12. I want to name my next cat Pemdas, but my girls object for some reason. :)
  13. nutmeg
    What is in the parentheses is a positive N and a positive 12 (n+12) To take the opposite of them makes them each negative (-n-12)

    I should add, I'm looking at these as additional reading to add to Trail Guide to World Geography. dd14 has looked through and loved Hungry Planet, so I plan on buying that plus Material World. Plus I have my eye on a few IMAX movies and National Geographic documentaries.
