I was thinking about it, and if you reverse engineered it...say started with a single letter and went out....you could possibly find some words that would fit. Maybe not nine letters, but it would make you think.

My kids were also in the 'gifted and talented' group. They'd send home charts of their progress that were so full of BS that I went crazy trying to get them to explain them and tell me how any of it was significant. They never could. TOTAL bs.

I've helped her with her homework and I'm surprised by how it will go from 4th grade easy to 9th grade hard and back in less than a week.
A lot of it is pre-algebra and I don't think you can start that too early as long as you keep it practical. That part I like. I like the reading/writing too but the volume is a bit high for my taste.
Like I say, I'm on the fence. It definitely stresses kids and I don't like that but I want them to be able to hold their own when they get to college. I'll never know what the right balance is until it's all over. At least they're tough, they seem to handle all of it pretty well so far. The girl's back diving and making A's & B's.

The eye makeup thing is our big crisis right now. She's wearing mascara every day now. I think her mom and I are gonna 86 that for a while.
 
A bookkeeper was bored with numbers and started scouring the dictionary for an English word that has three sets of double letters back-to-back.
He only found 1.......
Know what it is ?

Deeded? Or did I misunderstand the question?

3 sets of double....

It's one of those, "Ahhh, no way!" answers.

The answer is in the question. :)
