Mathlete Show – Graphing The World Cup, Gotta Keep Reading, Uniforms: Like Em or Leave Em, President for A Day

I think this is a wonderful idea because most of our children don't know any sports other than basketball, football, or baseball. To incorporate graphing which is a critical mathematical skill is excellent. I've never followed the game prior to this year, I so wanted the United States to win it, but unfortunately we didn't. There's always next year! There is the web site. Hope you enjoy it.

I chose this blog because we need to continuously encourage our children to read every opportunity they get. I like the beat especially becaue its a Jonas Brothers beat and kids today can relate. Hey if its musical ,they'll enjoy it. Gotta keep em reading!!!!! Here's the site.

I think uniforms are really great. They take away the headaches of figuring out what to wear to school each day. It saves money and there is uniformality. However it does takes away individuality, but still I think the pros far outweigh the cons. What are your thoughts? Here's the link.

This blog will allow students to take on the awesome responsibility of being the most important person in the United States for a day.Think of all the wonderful challenges that they will face as President; economic crisis, oil spill in the Gulf, health care, and of course being the first African-American President. Awesome!!! Here's the link.

  1. Although, I am a fan concerning the "traditional sports" I do believe that our people especially children need to be exposed to other sports to have some knowledge based about them. Often times we say we do not like something and know very little about it. So, I hope we learn to do more culturizing. Let's get id done USA!!!

    All I have to say about reading is KNOWLEDGE IS POWER. Even if you hate to read, there is no way around it. The more you know the more you grow. KEEP GROWING!!!

    Unfortunately, I was not able to pull up the link about school uniforms but I agree with 100%. I simply love the uniforms, and as you said it has its pros and cons, and the pros do outweigh the cons in my book too. KEEP THE UNIFORMS!!!

    Being President seemed unrealistic for some Americans before a few years ago, but now I think everyone black, white, boy, girl, whoever, can realisticly dream and put themselves in this position. Without a vision, the people will perish. So keep dreaming and doing what it takes to become a reality.
