Hasty Brook is the loveliest place in my world. It's a little piece of heaven in northern Minnesota.

LOL Lynne! If I were the teacher I would LOL that the kids had a sense of humor!
Pam- I don't know if humor will get you points on a test but it sure helps with the rest of life!!
Those are cute. *s*
Those kids have a good sense of humor but the teachers don't give A's for it. The teachers do get a guffaw, though :)
I didn't even read the problems that closely. I'm not math-proned :0( Have you heard of math morons? That might be me.
I would have to give points for creativity.
A great laugh for the end of the week! Creative, artsy people are often poor at math. Ask my daughter!

Yes, Ruth. That's my excuse, I'm artsy.
I was made to teach math my first year teaching, in addition to my Spanish classes. I thought for sure my high school algebra teaching was rolling in his grave the whole time. But, teaching algebra really helped me learn it finally.
These are great! I don't understand the questions, but I do get the answers!
These are priceless, thanks for a good laugh ! Hope you child is feeling better.
Those are great! I especially love the "find the x" one!

I wish I'd had that sense of humor when taking math and physics tests!
I guess I am artsy, too. So glad my life does not depend on my mathmatical ability. I think these is funny now, but they aren't my kid's papers!
The elephant in the way . . . priceless!
Along with the heartache of teaching, is the hilarious joy. I regularly have to turn away from naughty but funny kids so they don't see my smile and think their behavior is good!
This reminds me of that supposedly true story of a student who was asked on a test if Hell was exothermic or endothermic (getting hotter or cooler . . . I think). He proved that it was exothermic since a certain girl said she would date him when Hell Freezes Over, and thus he knew Hell would not be getting cooler.

These answers are great. Hopefully the creativity of these kids will be nourished - along with their math skills!
Wonderful lessons! This is great!
I love the find X. Tha'st the type of thing I always wanted to do in school.
Hilarious! The one on 'find x' is too funny!
