"How old are you?" asked a cheeky first grader when he sat down next to me at the literacy center I was observing.
"How old are you?" I asked in return.
"Six," he answered with a slightly insolent chin nod.
"I'm ten and a half times that," I replied.
"So you're a hundred?" he said.
Fortunately, it was not a math center, so I ignored his miscalculation. "Why don't you get started on your word family assignment?" I suggested.
