I used tables in Word this morning to make a shapes worksheet...I felt a little bad about it because of this conversation, but I don't have a better tool for the job.
There was an office lady at one school where I worked who did everything in PowerPoint. She set the slide size to 8.5x11 and printed out the results.
Thanks, Dana. Looks like all the local sites are out, but I'll keep checking.
I literally kept getting different results every time I refreshed, so keep an eye on it if you can.
Aw, ,Tep, that's very sweet! I'm so glad you got to eavesdrop and share.
Timelies all!
Mr. S's school marked 100 days of school yesterday. Among the thing he brought home was a necklace made of Froot Loops strung on a string. Of course he cut the string and has been munching on cereal all day. ADHD + sugar + artificial colors= wild child. sigh.
What a completely unexpected and not at all forseeable result.
(On the school's part, I mean)

Well, I didn't foresee the string cutting. (I assumed he'd just eat them straight off the string candy necklace-style.) Other than that...
Seems like they could be given a directive not to provide certain foods for kids.
Peanut's class did the cereal necklace thing, too, but with Froot Loops only every 10, with Cheerios as the rest. It was something, hearing all the kids go, "Teacher, I ate my cereal!"
I actually just did a huge project using word tables. What I really hate is when people design their class in a word table and I have to put it in Blackboard, because the formatting is so screwy and when they use it for numbers, like budgets, and then use a calculator. I still like excel for tables better, but it is more about the right tool for the job.
