    Beautiful. The Gettysburg address is great to teach with the Declaration of Independence. It’s the check on those promises - were they kept? No. Emily Dickinson is great to pair with Whitman - and then you’re on a rocket ship up Langston Hughs: “I, too, sing America.”

    Replying to @CaitlinPacific
    Agree! It's one of my favorite things about homeschooling. We just move from one memorization piece to the next. They've done some Emily Dickinson and Robert Frost this year. Before that the Gettysburg Address. And now on to Luke 2 in time for Christmas.

    Children used to memorize things “by heart.” Then someone came up with the demonized “by rote.” There is nothing like having some poetry, historical facts and (for life’s winners) math-type things at the ready.

    If you don't memorize certain concepts and rules you'll never be able to do algebra and trigonometry well. Memorization might be the lowest form of learning but it is still a necessary form of learning.

    Just as I criticize the “mainstream news,” it slaps me in the face with useful information. Snacks - erratically timed and responsive only to opportunity and the pleasure-seeking imperative - are the stuff of life. Live a little! Snack!

    A while back, the 5:2 diet acquired cult status. But new research finds that the 5:2 is hardly more effective than your GP’s traditional weight loss advice.

    We can kill Fox News. All we have to do is report objectively on newsworthy events. We’re the ones with the talent, the infrastructure, the money, the training. The far right and the mainstream media are in a financially rewarding symbiotic relationship.

    Play ball with me UCLA. I’m an old lady with cancer trying to get to my telehealth appointment. I support all gender identities but I was born in 1961 and I don’t know what’s up and I can’t answer all these questions and surveys. I just want to know if the chemo is working.
