teachers

School faculty will be spoiled this week with all these freebies across the Northland.

With school being in session for a week, I thought I would share this great video of parents giving a little praise to teachers. It's not an easy or well paying job to be a teacher. Most teachers don't get the lip service they deserve. So, these parents gave it to them, with a little humor.

I've been seeing this go through social media for quite some time now, and I thought I should probably figure out what this "Common Core" math is all about.  My kids may someday (I hope not for my sake) learn this method, so I should at least have an understanding.   And it's tough.  It goes against everything you and I probably learned as kids.
