Day Three Hundred Thirty Three 2011

IMG_2807
Grand daughter Shelby was working hard on homework after school this afternoon. She is learning about what a monopoly is in her fifth grade social studies class. She Googled it and found a list of examples of monopolies that she needed. She also found a ton of links for the board game, which she didn’t need. But come to think of it, what better way to learn about a monopoly than to play the game itself. Owning all the railroads and utilities—doesn’t get any better than that.

Just think how much more fun our homework would have been with a computer! :)

I agree with Jane! Sure wish I had access to Google and Bing when I was doing homework :0)

Yeah that would have been nice back in high school and college... we had to go all the way over to the library... wonder if people still use that place? Shelby doesn't know how easy she has it :o)
