Simon, my 9 year old son, is in 4th grade. Tonight his homework was to answer a few questions about a book the class is reading about a boy named Nick that is upset with his teacher for giving him too much schoolwork. Then on the back on Simon's homework he had to write a note to the character Nick with advice on how Nick should handle this situation.
Simon was having some trouble so I suggested Nick should "kill 'em with kindness" with his teacher Mrs. Granger. Simon thought that was a great idea since you get more flies with honey!
He wrote out the note to Nick and showed me his work.
"Hey Nick, try to kill Mrs. Granger with kindness..." is how it started out. I pointed out that he might want to reword this.
