I'm a total nutjob!

I was going through some of my blogs and realized just what a nutjob I really am!  Ha! I think I am an interesting character and I don't even show all of my ummm, uniqueness in my writings.  Pretty scary huh.

I keep forgetting this is a 'homeschool' blog and should talk at least a little about it dont ya think.  We are doing fairly well.  Nathan is in 4th grade and talk about 4th grade math.  OY!  I hated math when I was in school and I still hate it!  Teaching fractions is ooooh sooo fun.  But I AM making myself learn, so now I know how to turn an improper fraction into a mixed fraction and visa versa.  Still trying to figure out how to add fractions with unlike denominators.  I know I can figure it out, but it's like my ADD kicks in and I can't focus on how to do it.  No, I have not been officially diagnosed with it, but I tell ya, sometimes.........how many things can a person think of at one time, eh?

Oops, this is turning into a thing about me, not homeschooling.  Mybad as Nathan would say.  And he says it alot!  Ah, TV commercials, gotta love 'em.

We are going over the American Revolution again which is ok.  Also practicing reading a book (2 chapters at a time) and writing or telling what he's just read about.  I'm surprised I haven't pulled all my hair out yet.  He's just having a hard time with it.  Autism's so fun sometimes.  sigh

Gotta run, but will write later.

God bless!

Feb. 9, 2008 - Fractions ~ AHHHH!

Posted by ichuzchrist
Nathan seems to be doing well with his learning, despite the autism. That's great to see! I was never really a fan of fractions either, and we are revisiting them in Algebra I with Arianna. She doesn't like them. However, I have some activities that might help you with fractions, if you are interested. Just let me know, and I'll get them together.

Let me know when you come back up and visit the area! I'd love to meet up with you!

Hey there! Just checking in to see how things are going in your neck of the woods. Glad you still have some hair left ;-) We haven't gotten to fractions yet. I just took my 4th grader all the way back to the beginning with our new curriculum (Math-U-See) to make sure she knows her math facts. She doesn't. No shock there. So we're going through quickly to get her confident in her skills. Fun fun fun. LOL --Gwen

About Me

This will be my fourth year homeschooling. My family and I have really been blessed by it. This blog is just my rambling thoughts and musings regarding everyday life.
