Math homework

You should start to notice a pattern.

For emily

Not sure if you can see the numbers.  She has 7 in a square ( hop on one foot)  and the next row is 2 squares next to each other, a minus in one and and a 3 in the one beside it ( land on 2 feet) and then the next row (hop on one foot) is a square with a 4 in it.  Then she turns around and does it the other direction but does addition.  Make sense?
She has a few certain facts that will not stick in her head so we are trying every thing.

Edit:  This picture is actually 9-5=4.

Fact practice hopscotch

7-4=3

Serving practice

Homework

Quick picture of homework in progress. We are super busy with homework and sports and friends this year. 

First day pictures

Ok, here are the pictures you've all been waiting for.  My lesson from this is to be careful what time consuming traditions you start, because you'll be expected to repeat them.  I edited the wrong picure too, I have one of her holding up 3 fingers for 3rd grade, but I put the wrong one in.  I'll fix it next year.  Remember you can click on the pictures to view them larger.

Headed to 3rd grade

Fairy house by parker

This is Parker! No, No, No not in the picture, i'm typing. I bet your wondering "WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THAT?"

Well, it is a house for ME to live in! just kidding it's a house for my fairy garden, I painted it myself. Here is the front. I also decorated it by myself!

And here is the top. On the back of the house there are orange polka dots. You can see the stepping stones 

and that I took this picture on the stove! He! He! :0 :)

Taco recipe

Parker wanted me to post a picture of her taco invention.  It's Mexican rice, little bit of mashed potatoes, a lot of avocado all wrapped up in a "shell" of Canadian bacon.  Maybe she's channeling Julia Childs on her almost 100th birthday.  Bon appetit! 

Happy 4th

Parker decorated her bike and rode it in the neighborhood parade today.
