Education & Reference - 29 August 2007

I will be taking care of children in my home and I need ideas for activities I can do with them and how much should I charge per week, should I make contracts? I want to watch children that are 2 to 4 years old, because I have a two year old that is home with me and I want children that are close to his age. I want to provide them with educational activities that will be fun but inexpensive. Anything else I should consider?

6t - 12 - 6t = 6t - 2t - 6t

I've gotten straight As since 6th grade. I've been labeled "gifted." I've been in all the so-called "advanced" classes. I'm not some sort of drug-addicted bum who's tired of making an effort. School is honestly ruining my life! I'm force-fed information that I'll forget in a week, and that doesn't matter in the first place. How many adults have needed to know the tiny details of Assyrians' military innovations in order to do their job? How many adults remember HALF of what they "learned"?
I spend six hours a day being bombarded with useless information. Then, when I get home, I can't research the things I'm really interested in because I have no energy. It consumes my life and it's pointless and condescending. The switch to online school didn't help, either.
Now I'm trying to figure out what to do. Drop out and get my GED? Unschool? Just stop making an effort and get Fs and not give a **** because grades are stupid anyway? I'm tired of playing along. What should I do now, then?

When someone tells you that they saw your work (like a website) and "have been swamped." And that they'll keep in contact with you. Does that just mean that this person was busy (swamped), but they saw your work? Or is there another meaning?

I want to get into Social Work after High School, and I've been wondering... If I go to a community college right after High School, and THEN go to a university (For four years) after those two years after I get my AS, what are the benefits?? Will I learn a lot at the Community College that will make the university life easier and more enjoyable??
Thank you :D

P.S- My first day of 11th grade was today, and I'm in this program called "Futures" that I got into. What it is exacly is this class where I'll be researching deeply into what I want to do in the future. Then our Advisors work hard to get us an intership that will look amazing for College.

Having trouble with these problems.
1. Which of the ordered pairs (6, 1), (10, 0), (6, –1), (–22, 8) are solutions for the equation x + 4y = 10?
2.Complete the ordered pairs for the equation y = 3x + 9.
( ,0) , (1/3 , ) , (0, ) , (-1/3, )
3. Plot the point with coordinates (0, 2). You can describe the graph instead of actually making it.
4. Graph 3x + 2y = 6. What would it look like?
5. Find the slope of the line passing through the points (–4, 3) and (10, 3).

first of all, im taking honors pre calculus, and math isnt my strong point. not because i dont understand something, but because once you understand how to do something, it changes and you have a more complex equation and what not. and i always seem to make stupid mistakes that i dont catch when i review my homework. so last year i did pretty well because my teacher didnt grade homework on accuracy and on tests if we got a question wrong but that question's answer was part of another question we didnt get repremanded twice. but this year the teacher grades on accuracy and i dont know about the tests yet. what do i do?? how do i get unstressed and just learn to accept my best?
