"The answer is called the quotent. The number you're dividing is called the divident. The number you're dividing by is called the divisor.
15 / 3 = 5
dividend / divisor= quotent"
I was happy to see she also successfully used contractions!
Then on Thursday she finished her book: Riding Freedom by Pam Munoz Ryan. She really enjoyed this book tremendously. After she closed the book she asked me to write down some details about the book for her. I told her she should write the things down herself; and that I would find a nice notebooking/fancy page for her to write on. Then she wrote down a little synopsis about the book!!! She has never done anything like that before. Two days in a row she took NOTES! How wonderful! And on her own!!! No help .... at all! I was so pleased I went to my closet and found a little gift that I had been holding for such an occation. She earned a new jump rope! She jumped so much on Thursday night she had a limp on Friday!!!

| Dd is #22 |
Dd had another Basketball practice on Mon. night; and a game on Sat. She got a "star" to iron on to her shirt for her offense and rebounding. She scored 2 points; which is the first time she has made points; except for getting points b/c the other team had fouled her. She also made a lot of rebounds and made a jump-ball. I had been working with her on fighting more for the ball. Sometimes Dd just lets the other team have the ball if they were going for it; like you would if you were playing with friends. She improved her ability to fight for the ball.

| #22 is looking for the ball! |
These are some pictures from Sat.'s basketball game. This week they beat this team that had previously trounced them! It was a good redemptive game!

| She's got the ball--watch out! |
