Today is the election day that the 44th president is determined by electoral college.
My daughter told me very interesting episode. The story said, "It was so curious that all of the students in her school cast a straw vote for the next president yesterday. And then the result was announced at the last period, Barack Obama won by a score of 3(about 640) to 1(about 200). I like Mr.obama."
It sounds funny and I was suprised at the episode.
Of course, it was secret ballot and all of the students studied 2 candidates for a while. I thought that the U.S. must be a real democratic nation. Even though she is 11 years old, she already experienced the Bill of Rights. I become to love American education system that builds up good judgement.
Anyway, Gabi and I have a big problem. She is studying in a Math Honor Class, she generally did well at the first Quarter, but she looked like feeling difficult after exam every week. I don't want to be pressed by exam stress, but my friend advised me to ask for a tutor. What can I do, How can....?
Gabi and I went to lakeshore learning store and Barnes Noble Bookstore, bought several Math books. She said, "I am happy and thank you for thoughtful consideration, so I'll study harder." Fortunately she handled matters nicely by herself.
However, what happened? I left my credit card at the bookstore! The casher called me...Oh my God^@^

Perhaps the school can recommend someone to tutor your daughter. Working on your own is also a good idea.
Something like that happen to my brother. I think you should talk with her counselor on the school and tell them what is heppening I think they are going to help you...

Hi my friend ,we were talk about that program .I think was very interesting for your daughter.Today is Nov.7 I'writing because I missed in the rest of class but don't worry enjoy the weekend with your relatives
You shouldn't be afraid to get a tutor, but you and your daughter and the school should decide whether the higher class is really for her or not. She shouldn't feel embarrassed to change if she wants to (and if the school allows it). Sometimes it's nice to be the best in a lower class. It builds confidence.
