“If you were all alone in the universe with no one to talk to, no one with which to share the beauty of the stars, to laugh with, to touch, what would be your purpose in life? It is other life, it is love, which gives your life meaning. This is harmony. We must discover the joy of each other, the joy of challenge, the joy of growth.” — Mitsugi Saotome

Learning can only happen when a child is interested. If he's not interested it's like throwing marshmallows at his head and calling it eating. AnonymousrepliKATE

I never liked jazz music because jazz music doesn't resolve. But I was outside the Bagdad Theatre in Portland one night when I saw a man playing the saxophone. I stood there for fifteen minutes, and he never opened his eyes. After that I liked jazz music. Sometimes you have to watch somebody love something before you can love it yourself. It is as if they are showing you the way. - Donald MillerTRIP INSIDE MY HEAD

Wow! Or, as Kieran likes to shout,
"Yowza-Wowza!"
Congratulations on the big clean-up-I bet it feels great :_
Hugs,

Whoa! Total transformation!! I am impressed! :)
It's certainly impressive. I think I would not have had the stamina to see that through.
It's so odd to see summer. For once I am not jealous. We've had snow and it has been absolutely fantastic. We've had sooooo much fun.
Yaaaay - what a feeling. And even without Drew's help! x
looks fabulous! Hey!!! Do you travel :-)
Hey, this is off topic, but I read this about teaching math in the New York Times today -- http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/21/health/research/21brain.html -- and it reminded me of the way you've described working with your kiddos. Nice work! Sounds like your art classes will be nicely complimented by some surreptitious math skills.
Sorry, maths. :)
