Lyn Newton's commentsComments On: Everything Articles Blogs Journals Photos created by: EveryoneLyn Teaching Your Homeschooler about Evolution26 May 2007 08:54 PM I agree. When I taught 8th grade science, I taught Evolution and the Big Bang Theory. I never agreed or said they were right. I just said this is what some people think. It is important for the students to know that those thoughts are out there so they can be prepared if they ever come across them. I'd rather them know the jest from me than here something else from some big beleivers in these ideas. Safety Tips for Outdoors Cooking23 May 2007 11:46 AM So sorry about the not being able to cook outdoors! Grilling is such a great option for me because I can cook and the children can play outside at the same time. It keeps everyone occupied ! Concerns of Public Education: O = Outdated Materials23 May 2007 04:20 AM Very good point. Homeschooling parents face many of the same issues. Concerns of Public Education: L = Lice18 May 2007 05:34 AM Yes. Natural remedies are accepted. When the child comes back to school, the nurse checks his or her head for nits and bugs. She then notifies the parents if there are any. Some parents use the RID but don't comb out the hair. I think you are parent that we would never have to worry about!! Thoughts on the Recent Faked Gun Attack17 May 2007 03:02 PM I hate your bad experiences, Andrea. Your trips sound great, QueenAngie. I guess if our county took more trips such as those with younger students I wouldn't think it odd. It is all what you become accustom to. Only special groups such as those paying for the Washington DC trips or special groups such as the band take long trips in my area. Other overnigh trips occur in high school or middle school (7 & 8). I am all for field trips, as stated in previous blogs. I know they can be very educational. I just hate that the poor judgment of the adults turned a great learning experience for the children into a terrifying one! I also hate that the trips will be frowned upon by some for the furture children. Thoughts on the Recent Faked Gun Attack17 May 2007 12:26 PM Wow! I guess maybe I am just overprotective. I don't like my children going to their grandma's for more than a night! We didn't take overnight trips until I was in high school. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 |
