Clinging to the Vine

Sep. 27, 2006 - I'll call this one..........

Today was one of those fun days of homeschooling.  We've been working very diligently the last month (thus no posts here!).  Today I was trying to explain the concept of lines (go on infinitely) and line segments (part of a line) to my 9 year old.  She just couldn't believe me that the line went on forever because she could see it was just here on the paper.  I explained over & over in every way I could think of when she finally thought she got it.  Then I explained that in geometry we name lines using 2 points on the line.  She was OK with that.  So I drew a line with several points & asked her to name it.  She looked at it for a minute & then said,   "Fluffy!"
