    This was a problem from DS5's Everyday Math homework for 1st grade today. He did the whole sheet by himself at his afterschool program. I can't stop laughing about how he thought the grid needed to be completed.

    Love that!

    A related story:

    DS4 told me today that he scored 30 and DS7 scored 28 on some game, and that therefore he had scored 2 more than his big brother. I asked, "How do you know that 30 is 2 more than 28?"

    His reply: "I'm a mathy guy!"

    My response: "Indeed you are! Good answer!"

    LOL!

    Crisc, LOL At least he found some use for the table wink

    Kriston, it sounds like DS4 has good answers not only to math questions wink

    LOL, Kriston! That's awesome. Dh and I both loved it. And he's right -- he *is* a mathy guy!
