Nonny's homework tonight is putting her spelling words in alphabetical order. Word problems for math....teaching her how to label them and 'showing' their work. My daughter does a lot of her math work in her head---so this is a great challenge for her to have to show her work and label it---they are asking quite alot from the daughter who does not like to show you how she got her answer. Another thing my daughter does not like is to read anymore than she find absolutely necessary to do....she is a really bright child...just has her ways...she didn't get on the honor roll by NOT doing her work, she does it, she will just want you to pull out YOUR hair while the work is in process....lol
She is reading The Secret of the Old Clock - A Nancy Drew Mystery right now.....she seems to be enjoying this book. She finished a Little House on the Prairie Book 1 and that is longer, I told her she should be proud of herself.
She helped decorate the Christmas tree at church Sunday during class (that is what their class did) and got a big thank you email from her teacher today because even after class was done she and a few others continued to help--ahh, she makes a Mom proud.

Lil: it is so neat that your daughter is reading a Nancy Drew book! Claire, my almost 9 yr. old LOVES nancy drew this year. She is on book 5...I think it is #5..something about the clue in the diary. She absolutely loved the first 4. I did too as a child. My oldest never got into them. And what is even funnier...claire read all the Little House books last year! Our girls sound similar!
Good for her for making Honor Roll too. We don't have honor roll for elem. kids here but my oldest made High Honor Roll all through jr. high, and again this year just made Honor Roll. Claire got all A's though! God is Good!
