Marching on

Last week, Hannah and I were counting to one hundred on the way to school. If you take the big steps to Chambers street, there are 101 steps. And when we were sick of that, we starting reading out number plates. They are a bit more of a challenge than letter boxes as they have letters and numbers and there are more things to read.
This week, we are having an art's week; we've started by singing all sorts of songs on the way to school. Who knows where we might be on Friday?
Zach is just about driving us crazy with his antics; he is heartily sick of the cast and is finding all sorts of creative ways to get around and perch precariously in different places. I caught him sliding down the stairs on Saturday. To say that he is on the mend is an understatement. We go back to the fracture clinic on Thursday for another X ray and hopefully a smaller cast; this one has about had it!
We had DNI interviews last week with the girls, they both much appreciated by their teachers and need to work on their basic facts for maths. I have resorted to bribery I'm afraid. They are both desperate for a cell phone so I have said we will get them one each WHEN they get 100 on their basic facts test. I am hoping this will encourage them to put the work in to learn their times tables off.
Chris has finally finished the census, just as well as the assignments are starting to pile up!
