Bailey and Katy came to us as rescues. We lost Bailey in June of 2016 and Katy in November of 2022. We were blessed to have Annie join us in August of 2016. They have brought great love and joy to our immediate family and to extended family and friends. This blog will share their stories and issues related to Shelties. Some told from their perspective and others told from those that share this journey with them. Notice: This blog does have Amazon product links and Google Adsense

Monday Mischief: Parallel Shelties
Mom has tasked us with the very important job of helping some little sheep learn some very technical math concepts. As Shelties, you know one of our best talents is counting. However, Mom is broadening our skill base to help demonstrate geometry concepts for little ones.
Today you have parallel Shelties. Do to the fact we are dogs and not boring lines on paper we don't exhibit pure examples of the concept. However, if you were a kids studying, would you prefer boring lines or adorable dogs? We are going to be helping out with some human little sheep in the near future and while it may interfere with our blogging, we also plan to continue our educational math program. We do perpendicular pretty well so that could be on the agenda soon.
Welcome to Monday Mischief – The pet blog hop that wraps up the weekend! This Blog Hop is brought to you by Alfie’s Blog, Snoopy’s Dog Blog, and My Brown Newfies.

ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Hmmm...more like Synchronized Sheltie Sleeping :)
ReplyDeleteSo here we are trying to do our part to help educate kids and that is the thanks we get. :) When those kids provide their required math diagram on their next test and it's of us, you'll know we made the big time.
DeleteTHIS will be SO very much helpful and EDUCATIONAL fur the little peeps who are beginning School soon. SO thoughtful of you to have done this fur them.
ReplyDeleteThanks Frankie we are out to do our part. :)
DeleteI think you should also persuade your mum to look into counting with treats, if a bag has 20 treats and we each get half.... that kinda thing!
ReplyDelete"demonstrating geometry concepts" LOL Love it!
ReplyDeleteAnd all you need is one more dog and you can do triangles...
ReplyDeletereal world examples are soooo helpful to kids! good job!
ReplyDeleteA very good way to learn!
ReplyDeleteLily & Edward
Awe so cute!
ReplyDeleteexcellent work you are doing there
ReplyDeleteaww!!!! Parallel shelties! Love it!
ReplyDeleteღ husky hugz ღ frum our pack at Love is being owned by a husky!
I would have loved to studied geometry your way!
ReplyDeleteStudying geometry your way seems much more fun than the traditional method!
ReplyDeleteMath is fun. Using cookies is a good aid in helping learn addition.
ReplyDeleteWe were thinking subtraction with cookies would be a great idea. Think of the word problems we could illustrate. Katy had 4 cookies.....
DeleteOMD...Geometry AND math?? You all are great teachers!!
ReplyDeleteSmileys!
Dory, Jakey, Arty & Bilbo
You two are excellent examples of parallel. We do parallel sometimes too, especially when we are all lined up in bed with our pawrents.
ReplyDeleteWell you seem to good at geometry, we will follow along and see how this goes
ReplyDeleteThe Mad Scots
We are very impressed! You make math seem like so much fun!
ReplyDeleteHow cute! and they do it so well too!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! We'll look forward to the perpendicular pups next time!
ReplyDeletecute photo, they are buddies
