re: Best kind of dog food

Posted by teachingtiger on 4/11/15 at 11:04 pm
Ours eat Halo. We tried Blue Buffalo, but two of them kept picking the Life Source bits out and leaving them on the floor/patio. We chose Halo (and tried Blue Buffalo) because we realized that their previous food was mostly filler. They were always hungry and we were constantly buying food. Now,...

re: More Common Core

Posted by teachingtiger on 12/31/14 at 8:58 pm
You were talking about social promotion with regard to common core, I was told that the new common core test won't be completely scored until late August. So no one in Louisiana will be held back due to the 'high stake test'  Can any educator confirm? Sorry. On my phone and can't get quote fea...

[quote]Why would you not end up at 5? Each number in the sequence is half of the other number. Since we're dealing in whole numbers, 5 is the logical answer [/quote] I just seriously doubt that a 4th grade teacher in September of a school year is giving place value puzzles that include the divis...

Hey, it's midnight. I just woke up from a nap. :lol: I didn't read all the other responses. What's the deal with the ten-thousands place? ETA: What does the OT think the ten-thousands place is? I quit reading responses when people started dividing by two and rounding up to 5....
I am going to go with 66,782. Ten-thousands - in my post nap stupor, I thought maybe the pattern is the result of subtracting instead of division, but the 9-9=0 doesn't fit unless 27 was left out of the original pattern? I think 36/2=18, 36/4=9, 36/6=6 is more likely. Thousands - largest...

The Shed BBQ

Posted by teachingtiger on 12/13/09 at 6:08 pm
I searched to see if anyone had posted this, but couldn't find it. I thought that some of you would be interested to know that The Shed BBQ & Blues is opening in Scott, LA. I am not sure if it has opened yet, but they have been working on it. I have never eaten there, but I love trying new plac...
