Welcome Spring

Here's a recipe for disaster*

8 oz. water
1 tsp. dish soap (Ours was pink.)
1 tsp. vinegar
Glitter, if you have it (We didn't.)

*(I don't know. "Tornado in a Cup" just didn't sound quite as thrilling.)

Mix it together quickly, pull out the spoon and you have a mini-tornado in a glass. Enjoy!

We have had beautiful weather during these past two weeks, but Em was down with a bit of stomach bug last week and El has been working at about half-speed due to a combination of allergies, Dimetapp and a cold. Not a great time to start long division, but we did it anyway. Once again, I am extremely thankful for Maria Miller's math teaching videos. Here's a link to her How to Teach Long Division post with video.

We are enjoying reading Grammar-Land as a supplement to FLL, and El is completing these helpful worksheets (by Jessica Cain) as we go through that book. Everything else is business as usual around here (except that we are outside as often as we can be!)
