Several parents shared their children’s homework, that made them tilt their heads and call for help. Fortunately, some Reddit and Twitter users came to the rescue and shared their two cents.
The older one gets, the more complex educational work assigned to students gets. However, there are some instances where kids receive complicated homework.
When such instances arise, some parents seek the help of the online community to derive an answer for their little ones. Some of them are shared on the Reddit and Twitter platforms.
Grade 1 English
A mom was puzzled by her first-grade son’s English homework, where he had to encircle the photos that had the same ending sound as a fish’s fin. However, the options available were far from the picture. The available choices included a hamburger bun, a frog, a jar lid, and a spoon.
Some Reddit users offered their thoughts to the clueless mom, stating that the ending sound did not necessarily have to rhyme with fin. Some answers included bun and spoon, which both ended with an “n.”
Kindergarten School Work
Kindergarten homework questions are usually easy to answer with an adult’s help. However, one parent couldn’t think of the three-letter word required to name the picture printed on the activity sheet. The picture included a rabbit with her bunnies playing.
Fortunately, a kind Reddit user thought of the best possible answer: pet. “These kinds of worksheets try to make the last one more difficult by switching the sound of the letter to the end of the word to try and throw the kid off,” the person said.
Grade 3 Math Problem
Math problems for elementary students are often easily computed with all the numbers given in the problem. However, a Grade 3 student had to solve the question, “Janell had 15 marbles. She lost some of them. How many does Janell have now?”
One Reddit user suggested that the answer was less than 15 but did not think it was a fair question for someone in the third grade. Other users believed that the student should answer in a similar manner as the question, such as “Janell lost her marbles.” Another user said, “She has some left.”
A Six-Year-Old’s Homework
While some educational problems for six-year-olds are visual, one student’s assignment was beyond the comprehension of her parents. On her activity sheet appeared a print of a paint splatter and several apples.
The question read, “How many apples could be covered by the paint. There cannot be more than 20.” Several Reddit users were also confused by the question, while one believed it was a riddle.
Grade 1 Math
One Twitter user shared a Singaporean math problem for grade one students, and it seemed almost impossible to solve. However, one person solved the problem but tweaked the question a bit.
Another Math Problem
Another math question was posted on Twitter, leaving people confused. The question made students calculate the perimeter of a shape best on the calculations of another rectilinear shape.
One person replied to the post with a complicated answer and sarcastically said, “It’s very much justified to ask these to a [ten-year-old].”
Solving for X
Math can sometimes be complicated but often has one solution. However, this one math problem was too complex for the Twitter world.
“An orchestra of 120 players takes 40 minutes to play Beethoven’s 9th Symphony. How long would it take for 60 players to play the symphony? Let P be the number of players and T the time playing,” the question read. While it may be too complex, one Twitter person replied:
“The math is irrelevant in the case of this Beethoven 9 problem. As a performer who has performed it many times, the speed of the symphony is NOT a function of the number of musicians performing it.”
Reddit is one of the online forums people go to for questions. Previously, Reddit users shared 10 Intriguing Items That Perplex Observers with Their Form and Function.
She Used to Cry a Lot After Enduring a Lot of Pain BUT Now She Truly The Pride of Her Family.
Amber has arrived! This morning, a kind soul saw her in a ditch in Lancaster County, South Carolina, a gray beauty torn apart by hideous brutality. Amber’s face was a terrible mess of bruises, infected beyond measure, necessitating quick reconstructive surgery.
Her nasal canal was torn as a result of the cruelty she was subjected to, leaving her gasping for air. Her suffering was compounded by a broken jaw and displaced teeth, and her once perfect nose was now torn apart. Due to the severity of her injuries, the medical team had to sedate her to perform a CT scan, which was unprecedented in their experience.
Amber, who was just two years old, had her whole life ahead of her despite her small body and severe malnutrition. She was sedated daily for nearly five days as committed specialists worked tirelessly to give her a new lease on life. Amber’s face has been repaired and her nasal passages cleared as a result of their steadfast commitment, but the swelling serves as a reminder of her grief.
Her beautiful demeanor was unaffected, a monument to her fortitude in the face of tragedy. Amber showed tremendous courage and love as she healed and faced the hardships of heartworm treatment and sterilization.
She relaxed after a filling lunch and finally cuddled into her blanket for a restful night’s sleep. Today, she went for a walk in her new neighborhood under the warm sunshine with her new siblings, Jack and Alice, clear evidence that she has found comfort and security in her new home.
Amber would like to express her deep gratitude to all of her amazing friends who supported her journey, thought of her as she embarked on her path to a better life, and loved her unconditionally.
