Rabbit, Rabbit! . . .and so we start another month--the one that takes us from snow drifts lingering on shadowed hillsides (and yes, that occasional awakening to snow-covered lawns) to daffodils dotting grassy meadows. Peepers will be out within two weeks, mark my word.
Anyway, with the improvement in weather conditions comes the all too familiar desire for children to do just about anything to get out of completing school work. Ahh, youth. Now teaching and parenting must become a bit more, shall we say, inventive. (Kind of like hiding the peas in the ice cream. Well, sort of. . .)
Please help your child to remain on track with homework.
