Just When I Thought It Was Safe To Go Back To The Classroom...
Fri Jan 19 2007

Math. Wouldn't you know it? Math. I thought I was done with math!

One of my computer classes (and it allegedly is a computer class) was described to us by my instructor as being a class which is "Pure Mathematics". Not the kind of math one needs a calculator for mind you, but one on theory. Logic, proofs, relations and such.

Oh joy.

I spent most of today doing the first of two chapters of homework. Each chapter has only a handful of the questions assigned for us to do. It took me 6 hours and I didn't finish all of it.

I have this class tomorrow morning, and I suspect it will be a high caffeine intake morning.

    Math of any kind spare me!!

    And now I'm daily checking the math of a 3rd grader and a 6th grader. And telling Mom when she comes to pick up her girls that everything is checked and corrected. Saves her about an hour every evening.

    By the time I went back to work, my kids' math was far beyond my capability.
