Mid-terms

Been busy this week helping kids study for mid-terms...yes, in 4th
grade! Tomorrow is day 2 of testing and will be language arts and
social studies. They have to know all 34 provinces (kinda like
States) in China & their location, their capitals, the 8 districts of
Puxi (like knowing the 'burbs in Fort Worth), the continents, oceans,
etc. They've only been in school for two months! I studied the
provinces with them...wow, have to admit that's hard! All the names
sound the same Shaanxi, Shanxi, Hubei, & Hebei...Maybe Mississippi &
Minnesota would be similar?? Nah! Totally different letters! Test
is tomorrow though and sadly I would not do well. Anyway waiting for
this week to be over as much as they are.
