Homeschooling Learning and Fun

While being stuck at home all these days my kids asked about paper airplanes and since I really was clueless as to how to make one so we found this Free Paper Airplane.  It has beginner airplanes, moderate and advanced, with templates and video instructions.  This one was lots of fun for the whole family.

A few other sites we found:

Our newest family member

SnowFlake

SnowFlake2

We rescued her from OK Save A Dog, last Saturday.  We have been thinking about getting a dog for a few months, I was the one holding it up.  It was a big decision for me as I have only owned one or two pets I can remember.

We decided to go get her on a day when the snow had melted a bit and we were all feeling cabin fever bad.  We had not left the house for five days and had had enough.  I am glad we did it that day too because now we are getting even more snow and our streets still have not been cleared of snow.

We drove  about  1 1/2 hrs to go pick her up and the roads were pretty descent till we got to our neighborhood.  She did have a tiny accident on the way home and did her business on a towel I was holding her in.  Poor little girl was so nervous, but now she is making herself right at home.

Worst Teacher I Ever Had

Describe the worst teacher you ever had.

The worst teacher I ever had was a math teacher in high school named Mr. Cheng. He was so mean to me, he would pick and make fun of me when I didn’t know the answer to questions in class. I dreaded going to this man’s class day in and day out.  Plus he was not a very good teacher, I had a hard time understanding his lessons.
The worst part is I had him for two years straight for math class.   As a young student in junior high I guess I should have told my mom and ask for help. I didn’t ask for help from my mom, I just did my best and got through it.
Wonder if this experience is partly to blame for me not doing well in math as I progress through school. I had to work hard on my own and get tutors all through high school and college.  I struggled quite a bit with math all my life.
Who was your worst teacher you ever had?

I asked my husband what his worst teach ever was and he said his was Mrs. Louis, she was his teacher in 11th grade and taught him chemistry.  He did get his parents to help him and he got changed classes.
