Distance Learning

One of the new catch phrases from the Pandemic is Distance Learning or what use to be called home schooling.  Rory is only in Kindergarten and it is a challenge to keep it up.  I do not like the new math and it really seems like it is making it tougher to learn math but hey, I am old fashioned.  1+10=11.  However, it can also be called 10 and one.  So, I cannot pass Kindergarten math.  The rest is pretty easy to follow.  Yesterday we took a Distance Learning field trip.  Rory had an assignment to find a body of water, observe it and then write a paragraph about it.  We decided instead of using one of the ponds in the neighborhood that we would go to Doctor's Lake.  I took Rory there a couple of years ago to the boat dock and she loved watching the boats launch.  So we went back to observe the lake.  We did have our first lunch in a restaurant since this whole Covid started too.  It was kind of nice to feel a little more normal.  I know we have to cautious and we were.  It was good day spent with Rory and Jenny thanks to Distance Learning and getting an extra day off from work!
