I got a call from my daughter’s 5th grade teacher. She wanted to talk to me.
When I came in, I was worried and asked what the problem was. The teacher sat me down, and then handed me a few of my daughter’s homework papers. I looked at the papers.
The first 3 were literature:
1st: ‘Can you write about your favorite plants?’. My daughter wrote about our garden, it’s pretty good.
2nd: ‘Can you write about the thing you like the most about your house?’. My daughter: ‘I like our garden the most’ .
3rd: ‘Can you write about your best vacation?’. My daughter: ‘My friends like vacations at the mountains or the beaches, but I like going to my garden the most’ .
The last paperwork was a math problem: ‘We have a huge container full of water, a 7-liter can and a 5-liter can, they both don’t have measurement marks. How can you get 4 liters of water?’. My daughter’s answer: ‘I will throw both the 7 and 5-liter cans, then ask my mom to go buy a 4-liter can or a can that has measurement marks, then take 4 liters’.
It was a very difficult discussion with my daughter for me to explain to her why she shouldn’t do that.
But, man, I have to admit, it was funny.
