Correction: Fraction Manipulatives: Typo fixed in manipulatives. All of the printables had to be remade so that they would still be mix-and match. The new ones will not match the old ones.

Thanks Donna
PS Didn’t realize that you had put in an anti-spam word here.
Good Saturday Miss Donna!
Your blog is becoming one of my favorites to visit.
Besides being a sweet lady, you do have lots of neat things to read. We just watched your bug video - how facsinating was that?! I brought my girlies over (Emma (11) and Beka (9) to watch with me.
I took some photos a few days ago of a sunflower and today of a black and yellow butterfly on a Zinnia today. I’m going to go see what I can do with those now.
Have a wonderful rest of your Saturday!
, Robin
Donna…how do we get the updates?
Ginger, these are donnayoung.org updates. I’m guessing you are asking about YoungMinds updates? If so, check your hard-drive version of YoungMinds for the update link between the two doors. There have been several updates posted recently and I send notice of those via the YoungMinds update email list. If you are not on the list, I can’t add you to it, you have to join via the link at the update website.
Hi Robin, I saw one of the photographs of your sunflower at your blog and it certainly is a gorgeous sunflower! I love the colors!
Love your new *smilie* photo!
Thank you for the green calendar. It made mapping out our required 180 days a breeze. I’ve already put your Easy Gram to good use, too.
I have totally missed the update button on the YoungMinds Cd, so glad you mentioned it!
Sheri I’m glad the green calendar is useful to you. I had this wild idea to make a vertical calendar and I used Microsoft Excel to make them.
I really like the vertical calendars. I made myself something similar last year, but I like yours better so I will use those instead.
You’ve been working so hard!
