Math Skills

As we speak I am passing numbers to Kathi.

Alex is testing our math skills with questions like "what is 8,000 x 2,456" or "what is "2,568,948 / 748".  His point in asking is to prove that parents don't know anything.  To prove that we do I am using the calculator on the laptop and passing the answer to Kathi.  Alex hasn't caught on.  So far most of the answers go out 20 or more decimal places.  In his hand he has our calculator checking our answers.  We must look like math gods to him.

Please know that we don't feel the least bit guilty about this deception.  Although it is hard to keep a straight face.

I am impressed. I'll never tell. Homeschooling parents need to band together.
