A few tidbits

Hello, again. For those of you interested in education, see this article in the New York Times:
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/25/science/25math.html?em&ex=1209355200&en=5c34fbde342262e9&ei=5087%0A&exprod=myyahoo

I've been 'feeling' this way about math education for some time now. In my roamings, I have seen MANY kids who can not handle new math situations and/or abstract math because they have not had enough time to practice using abstract math. I've been swimming upstream on this for some time now. My munchkins spend quite a bit of time doing abstract math bits here at home.

Also, I've tried to add some gadgets to my blog down at the bottom of the screen. Hopefully, you can view the world clocks. In addition, I have tried to add a weather feature. If you can only see NY weather and can not change it, please let me know. And....I've added a search feature for searching within my blog. These are new gadgets that blogger is offering, and I'm trying them out. As I get feedback on them, I'll fwd it on to the blogger folks.

Peace.
