Went on another riverwalk, but this time we walked in the opposite direction than the last time. This brought us to some bridges. Of course this gave Kaarina and her friend (we’ll call her Mer) the idea to practice their bridges. As we continued on they discovered a little grassy hill to roll down. (I… Continue reading Bridges

As we… Continue reading River walk

The kids (well mostly the girls) had a grand time climbing up onto the boulders. My son decided that… Continue reading Kanab, Utah Days Three and Four

Getting Stuff Done
Kaarina learned the place value of one hundred the other day. She said that it was easy. It was interesting that she found the place value of a hundred easy because it has been rough to learn the tens and one’s place. In addition to that, she has been able to subtract easier than she… Continue reading Getting Stuff Done
