8. All but last

Why in the world is taking algebra _________ Sorry, that's where I'm coming up empty (right now)

[jdlh8894]

9. Got It!

Who in the world is teaching algebra today! Do I get a prize?

[seabeyond]

actually, du should embrace. algebra is the test and this is having student go outside the box

for extra credit. it has nothing to do with algebra, i dont think, but is having the mind do flexible thinking. something the people attacking education on is not pushing a student to go beyond.

well, here it is

but

your answer was wrong, lol

[Angry Dragon]

10. 13

[seabeyond]

11. my lucky number. but wrong answer. nt

[Fresh_Start]

12. I wish I had seen this before my son went to school

I'm pretty sure he had it last year. But for the life of me I can't recall it.

[seabeyond]

13. my son showed me yesterday. the only reason i remember the answer, is he explained

how to get to the answer. i remember that.

[RaleighNCDUer]

14. 42, of course. nt

[seabeyond]

15. of course...... not. lol. CLUE; it is a saying, not a number. but kids didnt get that clue

just so you all know.

[ScreamingMeemie]

16. I would not be getting extra credit in algebra these days, that's for sure.

:)

[seabeyond]

17. these extra credits are what gets him thru. it is funny how the brain works differently.

algebra is so hard for him. geometry easy.

this is easy. no one else in the class is getting this....

his very small moment to shine, lol

[ScreamingMeemie]

18. You should show him this thread.

Good for him. :)

Thinking outside the box is far better (IMO) than being able to study, retain, regurgitate.

[seabeyond]

19. i probably will. and it is really easy. but

i know there are posters that think this way. that will see it easily. i am more curious about different minds so want to see who comes up with it.

[bemildred]

20. "At wits end"? nt

[seabeyond]

21. ahhhh..... yup. you got it. good for you. two wits, plural. AT at the end...

at wits end.

[bemildred]

22. You have to think a little "twisty" to make it work. nt

[seabeyond]

23. so tell me

do you have a fuzzy brain, lol

you know, brilliant, but simplest things are beyond you. ha ha. people wonder if you are.....???? but there is no definition to your oddness so your mom calls you a fuzzy brain. lol

teasing

i am describing my son.
