Palindromes
Parker (and I) learned about number palindromes yesterday.
Like 11, 383, 6006.
He learned that if you add the opposite of the number to the original number (for certain numbers) you'll get a palindrome. So if you take 23 and add 32, you get 55, which is a palindrome. But for other numbers you have to keep adding to get to the palindrome. Like 98. You have to add the opposite 6 times before getting to 81718. He figured out how much each one took with all the numbers 1-100.
He really liked it. As you could have guessed.
