麻州没有传统意义上的天才班。宝宝的学校有一个math enhancement program,每个年级选十来个孩子,在正常的数学课时间出去学一些深一点的内容。宝宝最要好的朋友从学前班开始就在这个项目里,据他妈妈说,这就相当于我们这里的天才班了。
我的数学很差,高考满分120我只有五十几分,宝宝遗传不好,对数学也不怎么感冒,前三年都和这个天才班无缘。人比人,气死人啊。
今年宝宝上三年级,开学没几天拿回来张纸,说是被推荐上天才班啦。老妈美坏了,真给妈妈长脸。抱过来左啃右啃,宝宝还不领情,说:“I hate math! Now I have to do double math!”
3个月的过去,发现笨孩子上天才班真是有苦说不出!想当年宝宝放学十分钟作业搞定,他玩他的游戏,丁丁和妈妈玩妈妈的游戏,现在天天晚上鸡飞狗跳,鬼哭狼嚎。
选两道今天的题为例。
Case 1 – 妈妈会做的题:
Jenny and her parents went to the amusement park. They left home at 1:00pm and return at 9:00pm. The park is 1 hour drive away from their home. How long did they stay in the park?
宝宝答:“10 hours。”
我耐心启发。
宝宝再答:“12 hours。”
我再启发。
“8 hours?”
再再再启发!
“7 hours?”
“你就蒙吧!”
丁丁开始咬宝宝。宝宝打丁丁,我骂宝宝,宝宝哭,丁丁咬我,我和丁丁搏斗。。。
