So last night we tryed algebra since I got the Algebra for Dummies set, and she loved it! I really do have to get more comfortable with doing things outside the box The impossible is just something that hasn't happened yet.

I think I hear the twine of Ugly Perfectionism, yes? None of us were given crystal balls or instruction manuals that were accurate. I think inaccurate instruction manuals are worse than no manuals at all, yes? Grinity Coaching available, at SchoolSuccessSolutions.com

I work alot of extra hours, so I try and to fit things in here and there. I just didn't think that algebra of all things would spark a fire in her. The impossible is just something that hasn't happened yet.
