Nate was just doing a workbook page with story problems about a candy store. He now knows how many jawbreakers, caramels, and fireballs Rosa, Gene, and Rudy bought, even if he doesn't know anybody named Rosa, Gene, or Rudy and, as a discriminating candy-eater, doesn't have the foggiest idea what a jawbreaker, caramel, or fireball is. The last question was "write your own story problem about the candy store."
Nate's story problem: "I found 16 jawbreakers. I ate 2. How many did I eat?"
(Posted by Daddy.)
That's a math problem I could solve. And stay away from jawbreakers, Nate.
