We have been invited to Veg's open house next week and I'm soooooo excited to see what he is working on these days. Last year, they used to send home papers of the lessons they are choosing, but I haven't received those this year, so I'm never really sure.
BUT ---- Tonight we were getting ready for bed time and I pushed 20 minutes on the timer. Veg says... "I like that number because 20 equals two 10's" Well yes it does. Out of curiosity, I said "how many tens are in 80" and he answers "8" without even thinking. So he started quizzing me, and I did him.. turned in to a fun game. So then I was really curious. And I asked "How many 5's are in 10" he says "2"....
HOLY MOLIES.... so I ask a couple more and he gets them all. The boy can multiply and/or count by 2's, 5's, and 10's. He can count to 1000... How did I NOT know this! *sigh*
Can't WAIT to go to that open house! Obviously this is his year for Choosing to do math! *smile*
