Math in English Class?

   Sometimes when we have some free time, I let my kids work on homework. Today is one of those days. One of my sophomores was working on IXL and asked me a question. I said that even though I'm not good at math, I knew that squared and to the third weren't the same thing. My student replied, to the third is cubed. I just laughed and said exactly, I'm not good at math.

   Another student goes, "So the third is cubed. So November third is November cubed." Completely straight-faced.

   We all laughed. Sometimes, these kids of mine crack me up.
