Samuel is doing better. His mother came and dropped off his I.D. and this time she visited with him. He is working very hard on his multiplication with carry-over. He takes homework with him to practice after dinner. One of my students asked me what the BMI was today so I showed her how to figure her Body Mass Index by setting it up as an algebra equation. Her BMI is 48.6, considered dangerously high. I recommended that she start a support group at the rehab for those wanting to lose weight. “How about a little healthy competition with team support,”I said, “like that TV show The Biggest Loser.” Parole housing or reality TV show, you decide.
