Ps. Tori- it should have been "too" not "to" ;-P
(yes, I can be pedantic too)


Ok.. too= also?

when i was little we were taught to remember that one because you add
another o also. does that make sense?
kylie

Yes perfect sense. Honnestly I can not remember any grammer from school
except this one lesson in 12th grade and thats because the teacher made me
teach it (was a class project and each kid took a lesson for however many
weeks). I remembered that too would be used for "Too many icecream cones
cause weight gain"

Tori
ps the Lesson I did was about "Put the book next to Jimmy on the shelf" I
cant think of the word for it.

I won't tell you that you cannot do anything. OTOH, school smarts are
not the same as street smarts or real world smarts or work smarts.
There are many different talents.

You mentioned that you are in Scranton. I'm not sure how big that
town is, so I can understand not finding things that interest you,
but...

You could volunteer to help out at a child care center or senior
citizens center. If you can get to Factoryville/Nicolson, you can
volunteer to help with therapeutic riding. You could help with the
Food bank in Scranton.

If you enjoy taking photographs, I am sure you can find interesting
things or people to photograph. You could then make a collage or
scrapbook of your work.

If you like theater, check out:

I don't know the area, so could not say what is close to you or what
you can do without a car, but there are things you can explore.

Are there bike trails? Walking trails? What kinds of events are at
your library?

I enjoyed that (yes, I did fail, but I know *roughly* which states go where!).

Any idea if there are others around for African countries?

All the time?! It would get a bit easy, wouldn't it?

are you sure? i think you were at least exposed to US
geography in first & second grades, but probably as an
extention of reading or social studies.
i know we were doing world geography in 3rd grade because it
involved building dioramas, models & other fun things. we went
back to more US centered geography in 4th grade (with the
whacko teacher that hated New Yorkers)
