When did that become the norm? When I was in school, some seniors were finally at Algebra II and some even made it to Geometry.
-
For those who live in TN, I am looking at the graduation requirements and under math it says, Algebra I, Algebra II. Geometry, and another higher math course. Does this mean that calculus is required? What if a student is not math minded and started with pre-Algebra? For science it says Biology, Chemistry, or Physics, so I assume it means any of these or some other science class like astronomy? Again what if the student is not science minded and Physics is out of the question.

I remember Hurricane Andrew! Brand new houses were completely blown to smithereens while older houses were standing strong lol. I was just out of high school and it was the middle of summer. We went 1 week without electricity and my cool waterbed helped get through that hot summer so well.
-
I was wondering if any of you had info on this. Particularly, how well the houses are built? What locations do they build at? Just any kind of info I can get on this would be awsome

I put other. I typically like them without the skin but I once had some mashed potatoes with the skin and the skin was crispy. I liked it! I don't know how they did it but I liked it!

That may work with type 2 but not type 1. -
Yeah that's what I thought but I wanted to ask anyways cause I can be a bit of a perfectionist and I thought that this might just me one of my nit picking ways lol.

We were almost done with the Mind Bender series before she started public school. We were just about to do the Critical thinking books.

One ... or two ... of formal logic to lay as a foundation to rhetoric studies they will be doing at the high school level.

OK, so my dd14 went to public school before I could teach her Logic. I never bothered after schooling it because I never thought that we would go back to homeschooling and she was so weighed down with homework and projects that I just felt bad for her. She is just fed up with the public school system and wanted to go back to homeschooling. So we have. She is a freshman in high school and is supposed to be in the rhetoric stage but has never learned logic. Should I forget about the logic and just delve into the rhetoric or should I spend the summer teaching logic and jump into rhetoric in the fall when she will be a freshman?

A bean stew or a veggie stew. With white or garbanzo beans I like to had carrots, celery, potatoes, and some garlic. With red beans I like to add carrots, canned tomatoes, and some garlic. (You can use any red bean or lentil except for red kidney beans) I like to make a vegetable barley soup and this is very hearty and filling. Anything that is soup or stew like is good in a slow cooker.

Slow cookers are life savers for times like this. I just throw it in in hte morning and at dinner time it's ready.

I think that the thing to keep in mind is moderation is key in everything you do. If you want some chocolate then have some. Too much of anything is a bad thing. I make sure I get my fruits and vegetables and I try to stick to whole grains. I do have to do lactose free cause I am lactose intolerant. I just cut down on dairy a whole lot because of the cost but if I am craving cheese or ice cream then I'm gonna have some. I think that if something is made to be too hard then the success rate will be very low. Be good to yourself but treating yourself every now and then is also being good to yourself.

I used to spend about 1 hr. every day cooking but since I have decided to not cook meat so much, I now spend about 30 mins or less.

What do you do while listening to audio books?
Peri replied to amselby81's topic in K-8 Curriculum Board
Usually it's while I'm driving in the car or during down time (after they have gotten ready for bed but before they have fallen asleep). I like it because its a break from the usual noise that's on the radio. Don't get me wrong. I love to listen to all kinds of music but I just sometimes feel like it is nothing but noise. When we listen to them at home it's a great opportunity for me and the kids to listen to a good story while I am busy with something like folding laundry and putting it away. I also like to either knit or crochet while I am listening. -

I currently have the 2nd edition. I am wondering weather it is worth it to get the 3rd edition.

I cried when I started to read them again because the strong survivor that was Katniss in the beginning of the book, is barely hanging on in the end. She's like a ghost of her former self.

Good verses evil as in look at what a corrupt government is like. Look at how when a lot of the TV shows glorify violence and ridicule (WWF, Survivor, Fear factor, ... etc) where will it end. Certainly the things that are acceptable on TV right now would not have been acceptable years ago. These are the main points she is trying to make. In the second book she focuses on the scariness involved in starting a revolution and in the third book she focuses on the destructive nature of war and how, because of all the damage done, there really is no winner in a war. We all suffer.

I was not. It was obvious that Peeta loved Katniss through the first book and through the second book it bacame obvious that Katniss loved Peeta. I thought Gale was a jerk. I kept hoping he would get dropped of a cliff ;) I really disliked Gale when K had planned on giving herself up to Snow so that Gale could get a shot at him. What was Peeta's response verses Gale's. That plus other scenarios made me really dislike Gale. I think that if K had ended up with him she would have gone down this destructive path cause all he did was egg her on. Peeta's the "bread" of her life. He's the reason she didn't die and he is the reason she could start on the path of recovery. Mockingjay is actually the best of the three there is just a lot missed and overlooked after you finish reading the first time. After the first time I finished the book I was left with a haunted feeling. When i read the books for a second time, I understood better, got all the points that I missed, and was much more satisfied with the ending.
