Fractions ~ Unschooling Style

Overheard from the kitchen:

Saren: You just scared me half to death!
Harper: Oh! Do you want me to do it again?
Saren: Then I'd be all the way dead.
~a pause while Harper does whatever she did~
Harper: Oh no. Now she's dead. Maybe I should do it again.
Saren: Now I'm one and a half times dead!
Harper: I'll try one more time!
Saren: Now I'm dead times two!
