On Friday we hosted an old fashioned book burning. EDO and several friends found that their sixth-grade math books contained objectionable material. The publishers were, evidently, committed to an ideology that included fractions and decimals. So, into the fire went those dangerous ideas. Besides, now that the school year is over, the girls felt that a purge was justified. I tried to remind them that it might still be good to know that two halves make a whole.
