During another random conversation with Smruthi yesterday.
Me: Darling, why don’t you take ur old school bag to school tomorrow, since this one is very heavy for you?
She: Ma! Tomorrow is Friday. Ma’m will give me homework tomorrow. That will not fit into the old bag.
(And gives a ‘don’t-you-know-even-this’ look at me)
Me: Oh! Ok. So, what is going to be your home-work for colouring tomorrow? Any idea?
She: I think it is a semi-circle, coz, we colored that yesterday in school.
Me: **going bonkers** SEMI-CIRCLE?? What does that mean??
She: You put a ‘round’ in a paper. That is a Circle. Erase half of it. Then it becomes a semi-circle.
Me: (speechless)
I don’t think I understood the difference between a circle and semi-circle until I learned Trigonometry in X std. And my darling is teaching me the difference, in her kinder garden. Kids of today!!!!!!!
Tomorrow is ‘Report Card’ day in her school, combined with a PT meeting, and I hope that I will hear all praises about my daughter. (They better do that for the money we have paid them.)
…..To be continued by another post (based on the results)
