Over Confidence

Patrick Nikolai is Bodhi's classmate. His mother talked to me yesterday, and said that the kids in the class said Bodhi is the smartest one, and Patrick is second. We both agreed the reason they voted that way because Bodhi already passed Mega math and Patrick passed multiplication test.

So on the way home, I talked with Bodhi about that, and he answered me, "That's not right, I am the smartest kid in the first grade and kindergarten."

From : the proud mom.

And to made me even happier, Bodhi said thank you to me to make him practiced alot so he could be the smartest kid in the 1st grade and kindergarten.

Note: every week, in Darby elementary, for each grade they have math test. For 1st grade, they have to pass addition (100 problems within 5 mnt) and subtraction (100 problems within 5 mnt). For Patrick and Bodhi that passed the two tests in the early phase, the teacher allowed them to do the next test, which is multiplication (100 problems within 5 mnt) and division (100 problems within 5 mnt). Multiplication and division is standard test for 2nd grade and up, and next test is mega math (all operation, total 400 problems within 20 mnt) for 3rd grade and up. The minimum score to pass is 99.
