    Common Core?

    Common Core is unconstitutional. The rights of schools, religion, etc. belongs to the states to decide not federal government. The federal government has the right to maintain the post roads, protect our borders, and commerce between states only. Schools, religion, health care, and everything...

    Common Core?

    We need to keep fighting against common core and not give up. Our children's future is at stake. Common Core is a program to get our children to conform to what the government wants and takes away our children's creativity and natural curiosity. You know a program is not good if the teachers...

    Common Core?

    Our wonderful governor signed cc into law in our state but I heard today the Chicago Teacher's Union is against it. Most unions are for it so if this is true hopefully we can get it out. Most the teachers I know are against it and can't make sense of it. My girls are both in special ed. I am...

    who has children?

    Yesterday was Jean-Thomas Day. I miss his hugs and our play together. I miss David coming in the door and going to help dad in the fields or to help me make a garden or build something. I miss him coming in and teaching me what he is learning at school. Yet I know my boys are not lost but are...

    our first flock

    How do you tell which chicks are cockrels and which are pullets? I've been watching them and they seem like all animals. They each develop their own personality. We know our 6 older ones are pullets. So far only one is named. The biggest girl is Walenda. She likes to sit on the edge of things...

    Common Core?

    Common Core from what I've seen of it and from what many of the teachers have said is NO GOOD. Illinois has adopted it and all the kids and most of the teachers in our area hate what little they have gotten so far. My daughters teachers are keeping their books and teaching as little of common...

    hi from Southern Illinois

    Thank you for your kind welcome. I looked at the oppingtons. They are pretty. It says they are great in cold winters but how do they handle hot summers? We have both. This winter was so cold our pond froze over solid. Our summer can get up in the high 90s.
