Math Help For K-12

K- 12 is a short term for kindergarten (5 or 6-year-old) through grade 12 (17-18 years old). It is commonly used in schools in United States and Canada. Some of the students in this levels really need Math help in their studies. Math is one difficult subject. Although my kids can ace their Math subject, I heard a lot of parents looking for Online math tutoring. To them, it would be wiser to invest in Online math tutor because it is cheaper. They also said that there is abundance supply of earning materials.

A lot of them are asking me why my kids are good on Math. I told them that my secret comes from Free math help. I was able to experience a free demo since it is my first time to an Online math help. The best about online tutorials is you can access them 24/7. There is no hassle on your time. The kids can learn in any time they want. I know that it's hard to learn something when you're mind is not at peace.

This coming October is the second quarter exam of my kids. I am looking forward to it because I knew they can ace Math again. Free online math tutoring is my helper when it comes to reviewing them. If you think that your kids need help, don't hesitate. Tutorials are the best next thing. They knew the lessons well and can teach your kids to be more interested on Math. Another thing, since kids now a days are also into computers, then utilize it to have an online tutor for your kids.

Sunny On A Sunday

Is it really Sunny on a Sunday? It has been raining for days now but today the sun says hello world! What a relief, now I can resume the laundry..LOL

Anyway, this sunny day made me think.. Why is it (if not always) that most Sundays are sunny? Is it because it's Sunday? Day of sun? Well let's look into the history of the day Sunday..

The first day of the week is Sunday. For most Christian denominations this day is considered a holy day, due to the fact that Christ was reported to have risen from the dead on a Sunday. For this reason, since ancient times, it has been designated a "day of rest" mainly for the purpose of contemplation and worship. (The actual last day of the week when God rested after creating the universe was Saturday.)

Yet the name of Sunday has nothing to do with Christianity, but everything to do with even more ancient religions. The ancient Greeks knew that the sun was the source of life on the planet and they gave it prime importance in their thinking. When the Romans later adopted the seven day week they emphasize their respect for the sun by naming the first day of the week for it..."dies solis"..."day of the sun".

The actual word "Sunday" is derived from the German word "Sonntag" (and they likely got it from the Scandanavians). These folk too placed a great deal of importance on the sun. Some tribes of these Germanic peoples invaded England in the 500's or so. They were known as the Angles and the Saxons. The old English work was "sunnandaeg" and it changed over time to become our current, "Sunday". Source

Hmm..not quite what I was thinking.. I though back then, that duirng this certain day, the sun is very shinny, hence they call that day, SUNDAY.. LOL

How about you? Why do you think they call it a Sunday?
