Do Parents Recall what they Learned in 5th Grade?
Well, even if they do, it may not help because today kids are probably learning what we learned in fifth grade in the second grade!
I saw this post, “Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader?” on Blogging Baby and had to pass it along to the SharpMoms. Fox television will be airing a show to test the nation’s fifth-grade knowledge. Adults will compete in a “quiz” based on questions from elementary school textbooks. The idea is to measure what you don’t know rather than your intelligence. Actual elementary school students will be on hand as “experts.”
Intriguing or insulting? I think I’ll have to watch an episode of this one before I decide.

Hi, I'm Katie. I’ve been successfully working at home and homeschooling my kids for the past 14 years, so I figured it’s time to get out there and start sharing what I’ve learned along the way. I'm glad you're here to join in the fun!
