School Computers

You may wonder how I have time to blog. Well, it's because I don't actually teach my children, our electronic devices do. I'm really just kidding, (but some days I wish they could completely take over and I could have a break.) I just happened to pull out my camera this morning to take a picture of Elijah and this is what I saw around me-

Tori and Julia each playing on a school computer -

Ben doing his new Math-U-See. See the guy on the DVD player? Well, he's a math teacher that doesn't get stressed, even when he has to repeat the same thing six times in a row. He is working out really well for Ben (and me.)

Remarkably, Alyssa is doing math the old-fashioned way, with a textbook and a notebook.

However, Elijah is playing "pink puter" as Julia calls it.

Alyssa was assigned the task of watching "Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang" by her music teacher. So, JD dusted the old VHS off and watched it with the kids. Since it is long, they only got 1/2 way through it on the first night. The next morning, Julia asked me if Daddy was going to finish "Shake-a Shake-a Boom Boom" with them that night.

Shake-a Shake-a Boom Boom put Elijah to sleep, notice he's still gripping the keys he carries all day.

  1. I would love to talk to you about school and Ben. Gabe is having such a hard time. And boy do I understand about repeating things over and over and over!
