Dentist
Robin worked with Saxon Math 1.
He practiced typing.
And we visited the dentist. Unfortunately, Robin has fairly 'soft' teeth and they are not in good shape, despite regular dental care (and, in the words of the dentist, good oral hygiene. He had to have one tooth extracted, and will need to return for several more fillings. He did an excellent job of working with the dentist to make the process as smooth as possible.
