Galactic Apple: May 2008
http://galacticapple.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 12, 2008. What's the first thing that pops into your head when you hear the name "Othello? If you asked my sister, she would most likely peg Othello as one of Shakespeare's greatest tragedies. She would also be able to tell you several of his greatest histories and comedies. Not me. If you asked me what pops into my head when I hear the name "Othello," I'll tell you a math game! Othello is also known by the name Reversi. This weekend Orion and I gave Othello a trial run. He actually asked...

Galactic Apple: October 2009
http://galacticapple.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 4, 2009. I wanted to take a minute to tell you about one of my favorite book stores, Half Price Books. A good friend of mine introduced me to this wonderful book store about a year ago and while it isn't as ginormous as the Dixon Street Used Book Store in Fayetteville, AR. Half Price Books is pretty darn impressive and they have a much larger young adult and children's book section than Dixon Street. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Take Me to the Galactic Apple Now!

Galactic Apple: February 2014
http://galacticapple.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 27, 2014. My students and family will agree- I adore playing games. Especially games that teach math concepts! On a recent thrift store run, I found an interesting little game called Feed the Kitty! Feed the kitty is a great little 'dice' game that reminds of spinning the dreidel. The game is appropriate ages four and up; however, I'd like to think I know some three year olds that would be able to play this game! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Take Me to the Galactic Apple Now!

Wednesday, October 22, 2008. Orion and I are still reading out loud each night for about 20 or 30 minutes. Sometimes the books we read are books I've been waiting to share with him (like last year's consumption of Gary Paulsen's. Work) other times they're books that he's discovered (during fourth grade we discovered Andrew Clements. We've even been known to reread books that his teacher is reading or that he is reading for the Accelerated Reading Program. This time, we discovered Roland Smith. Next I don...

Galactic Apple: Qwirkle
http://galacticapple.blogspot.com/2014/06/qwirkle.html
Sunday, June 1, 2014. Nearly a year ago I was introduced to a 'new to me' game by my seven year old niece, Ellie, and she promptly swept the floor with my ego! She also got me hooked! Is so easy to learn how to play. This was where Ellie began counting coup! A few months ago I was lucky enough to find Qwirkle at a local thrift store (I have been so lucky finding games in tact at Tennessee thrift stores! And sees the patterns easily. She has trounced me a time or two as well! Our brains are designed to se...

http://galacticapple.blogspot.com/2013/06/captains-mistress.html
Wednesday, June 19, 2013. Despite all of this change in my life, several things have remained constant- my love of teaching, my love of mathematics and science, and my love of games. Luckily, my friend and husband feeds my love of games by shopping for them at thrift stores (even when I cannot be with him to help! This evening he totally scored big time with a "new to me" old favorite! Ranging from $35 to $46. And Mariko Naghiro share their thoughts about the Educational Value of Tic-Tac-Toe for Four to ...

I wonder who will be my next victim. I hear the distant sound of cargo ships sailing towards me. I see those ships’ artfully decorated and distinct flags flying. I long to see the crews’ faces filled with fear when they see my jolly roger. I know that I am the only one who knows if I have killed anyone. I am a pirate.
