Oh, I know how much they like their little jobs at that age ! Luckily, my son goes to 2nd grade math while his 1st grade also have math, so he doesn't miss out on anything. Though on Wednesday, when he wasn't scheduled to go to his 2nd grade class, they sent someone for him anyway. His class was lined up to go to art - his teacher asked him which he wanted to do - "Art or math", and he responded with a definte "MATH" smile
