Education & Reference - 15 January 2007

I have a 7 year old who is struggling with reading. I am trying to find some more resources for him. I was wondering if anyone new of a child website that helps kids advance in their reading while having fun? We read all the time at home but we just need some fun stuff for him to interact with.

I think it's something like, "If you split your logs, it will warm you twice," but I don't really remember.

Who said it?

ok... we have to write some stupid play for social.... ok so a person who lives in nova scotia meets this loyalist who came from the 13 colonies... and the lady is upset because the people who were with her at the tempoary camp already left to get their land from the Anishinabe. so the lady goes to stay with the Nova Scotia lady. and basically in the middle it just talks about what the Rebels (or patriots) did to the Loyalists (or tories) durring the American War of Independaince (american revolution). what would be a good name for this REALLY lame play

I posted a statistics problem a few minutes ago. Here is another one. Same deal, I need step by step instructions on how to solve the problem and why the test is chosen.

A sample of employees at a large chemical plant was asked to indicate a preference for one of three pension plans. The results are given in the following table. Does it seem that there is a relationship between the pension plan selected and the job classification of the employees? Use the .01 significance level.

Job Class --- Plan A --- Plan B --- Plan C
Supervisor --- 10 -------- 13 -------- 29
Clerical -------- 19 -------- 80 ------- 19
Labor ---------- 81 -------- 51 -------- 22

Thanks for the help to all who respond.

He is very bright and catches on quickly, but he is slacking on his homework to the point that the teacher is afraid he won't pass 3rd grade because of his missed assignments. This kind of ramification doesn't seem to affect my son. When he's doing his homework he comes to me and says I don't want to to do my homework anymore. How do I "make" him understand the importance of this at such a young age and why he "has" to do it.
