My boyfriend has trouble reading, he's 23 and has had a very stressful past moving around, a broken home, and bad influences that interfered with him staying on a good track all throughout his years in school. Even though his life has improved, the result of his past is affecting him now. When he reads he will often mix up vowels or skip letters all together when pronouncing the word. For example he especially has trouble pronoucing the ending -tion, like the word demonstration. He will pronouce it
demon-STRAIGHT-EYE-ON. He wants to improve and I want to help in any way i can. Anyone with any recommendations on what he can do to improve and what i can do to help, i would love to hear them. Thanks!

Also of course since he has trouble reading he definately has trouble spelling as well any suggestions for improvement here i would also appreciate. :)

I like to try to jazz things up and instead of saying "oh yeah, that's cool" I want something like neat or "snazzy." Yeah, so I guess just some related words would be great. Thanks!

What are everyones thoughts on a business that distributes bulletin board packages to daycares and schools. the kit will include all of the cutouts (laminated) that you will need for each bulletin board. i think it is a neat idea and a service could also be offered to put up the bulletin board.

I need a "pretend pizza" for an activity--the kids are going to put the "fake/construction paper" pepperonies and peppers on it as we go along in the lesson but I need it to start out just a plain cheese pizza. How can I make one, or does anyone know where I can find one to print out. I don't want it to look like a real pizza...any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!

My daughter is a great kid relatively mature, good natured, always helps when asked, and up until now 10th grade has always been a 3.25gpa+ student. This year she had 3000 texts last months, 800 min. cell time, weekends with her friends, homecoming, and now she has a 2.9gpa after promising repeatedly that she would bring her gpa back up. Now she is grounded until interems come out. What if she doesn't get a 3.25gps (my standard)? She isn't studying more than 30 min. a day even now and I feel like it should be 2hrs a day if she's struggling. It seems high school has turned into a social event instead of a stepping stone to college. We talk about future, how high school is high school and most of these kids she will never see again, she understands seems focused and then quiclkly get's another C. How long should she stay grounded, do I take away the cell phone too?, stop all extra curricular activities until she can prove she can stay focused? She wants a car too and I'm like GPA plese
