Seems I do this job in spurts, doesn't it?
Anyway, today was pretty normal. I helped kids with math and reading and writing in groups of 1, 2, or 3 and sometimes I let them stop 5 minutes early and play with the toys in the room.
I also got to play another card game with one of the older boys. We played Magic again, and despite me remembering some of what to do, he hasn't really taught me any strategies so I think I basically put my creature cards out there for him to destroy a turn or so later. There's some sort of attacking involved, but I never really got the lesson on that, so I pretty much just slowing lost my points. Then we played some other similar game. I can't remember what it was called. It wasn't Pokemon, but something like that I think. Partway through our game another boy came in to work on some writing and he knew the game. He looked at my cards while the one I was playing against was on the phone with his mom. He told me I had a good card. (Go figure!) However, we didn't finish this game as my opponent had to leave shortly after that. I will never realize my full potential at Magic card games! Perhaps I should read up on the rules before I sub for LRC again? :)

I think you should declare yourself the winner of that final game the kid had to walk out on. A win by forfeit is still a win, victory is yours. You should totally read up on how to attack and surprise him next time you're there.

You should definitely read up on the games this summer in case you need them next year. You might not go back to that room before school is out. I'm sure you would rule on them as you do in Catan!
Love you!!! MOM
