Friday Feature: John's schoolwork

John is a regular math whiz. When we played Payday last week, he added up his money at the end and with just a little bit of help, added up to $1,450.

Not bad for a kindergartner.

Today's feature is pretty typical of what comes home once a week. I'm not sure if it's a "pick your own math problem" free form exercise or if there's more instruction than that. Either way, I love seeing the repetition and reinforcement of math.

Along with, apparently, his name. Somehow I don't think that's part of the assignment.

I love math, and I want my kids to excel in the subject. I always say: my kids can be anything they want to be when they grow up. As long as it's a scientist or engineer.
