OK Kim. So you had to be one of those kids who always got the answer right but never got full credit because you couldn't show your work. I can see that 1990's parent-teacher conference right now.
Yes! I would be halfway through showing my work and it not working out, but I knew the answer at that point and not understanding how to show how to get there 😂
I learned this with Keep, Switch, Flip. So keep the first fraction the same, switch the division symbol to a multiplication one, and then flip the second fraction to it's reciprocal.
@@mikemeyerphotopro Yet, the people who didn’t learn for those tests, and just skipped all school, are painful to talk to, because they are incredibly dumb… So it works after all. What these kids are learning is the foundation of knowledge. Do you see the foundation of a building? Not really, it is deep down and in the inside. So you don’t necessarily see it, but it is still essential.
@@juzoli Save your cheap fortune cookie comments for your mouth breather friends. Don't be bitter just because you didn't have a life in high-school.

I was a year ahead in school, graduated a year early, and was finished earning my credits by the end of the first semester of my junior year.

Good for you, but that’s not the point here. School is not too easy for most people out there.
If you really want to feel stupid, try having a valedictorian son who finished 33 college hours in high school and is a 4.0 mechanical engineering college senior, who teaches classes at K-State. He literally started college math classes in 7th grade and does calculus problems IN HIS HEAD. Meanwhile I need a calculator to add triple digits. 🥴
That is awesome! See he inherited the genes from you and that is all you need to tell!! Plus all you ever had to say when he may have asked for help is , Oh you got this..!!" Be a problem solver...
6:05 that moment after a test when the kid in class who studied their ass off found out that the cool kid just came in and wung it (winged it??...???) And still got an A.... The agony
Good for you, Kim! I would have flunked out! By the way, I have the definition of your favorite word: F.I.N.E. = Freaking Insecure, Neurotic and Exhausted. So, we are all FINE!!
You guys make my day! BTW, I purchased your audio book so my husband and I can listen to it when we travel. I want him to get a better understanding of how my brain works and why I am like I am. And yes, I too am an adult with ADHD and I also have dyslexia. I’ve navigated this world with both. I am currently a reading support specialist and teach 2nd-5th graders phonics. Most of my students have dyslexia and a few have ADHD. Before this, I worked in Special Education as a classroom aide. I really relate to the kids I’ve worked with. Your videos have both entertained and educated me. I look forward to your book. You guys were also my favorite couple on The Amazing Race!
OMG Penn's face looking at Kim solving that last problem, lol! That was me trying to help my daughter with math...I had to send her to a tutor because it would make me crazy!
I can't believe some of the things they teach kids. My daughter was struggling with Ancient Mesopatamia in 2nd grade. She still wasn't reading that well but they felt the need to teach something really worthless. Uggghhh!!! You two are so funny and talented. Love all the videos!!! :)
Just a note: Teachers can sometimes choose HOW to teach, but rarely WHAT to teach, at least in the U.S. The WHAT is determined at the federal, state, and district level.
I actually don't have all that much say in what I teach. I have a lot more freedom than others, but there are certain things that I am required to teach and if I don't teach them, I could get in trouble.
Yeah normalcy, I don’t know what that looks like. Teacher here in quarantine after testing positive last weekend. Only one week back and half the kids I serve, their classes are quarantined because of kids getting sick. I’m vaccinated though, so it’s just cold symptom stuff. Still super disruptive to life and school. Annoyed my school district basically has no protocols in place this school year after taking it so seriously last year. 🤷🏼♀️
Which test was used? CDC has stated the pcr test is super faulty and they are phasing it out by Dec. Unfortunately, so many places are STILL using it. My point being, you really may have the common cold-it happens😁
Are you kidding me Lola is a freshman penn Charles is in middle school?!?! I can’t believe they’re that old enough!!!! my oldest nephew is in 7th grade and my youngest nephew is in 1st grade 😨😨😨 I’ve never felt so old 😂🤣😂🤣
Oh love it Im a GEN x school teacher and if you teach little kids liken2nd a long time, you get to relearn all this with your kids or when you move up to grades 4 or 5...lol
I'm a homeschool mom and got every single one of those right and only had to guess on 1 because we haven't studied that yet. Lol I knew the forest one because we studied it two years ago. You learn so much as a homeschool mom! My husband says I'm going to be crazy smart when they graduate. Lol Kim was too funny on that last one.
Penn, I'm sure you are a competitive guy, but don't take it so hard, or on yourself either. You did great! Can't wait until my kids are in middle and high school.
Kim, I totally get it. I solved problems the same way in high school physics--formula? I don't need the formula! I just guess what makes sense! Hey, it's the right answer! 🤪
Okay, the hot dog question. Seems incomplete to my analtyical self. The 50 Combo's answer only accounts for the $250 he has to pay the city. That doesn't cover the additional $2 per combo fee he has to pay in addition. Each combo he sells will change how much more he's paying them...🤔 Poorly written question?
At $7 each if he sells 50 combos he gets $350. Pay $250/day, that leaves $100. Pay $2 per combo, 50 combos is $100 additional to pay, that leaves $0. That's the break even point. Each combo sold per day above or below 50 would earn or lose him an additional $5; i.e.: * If he sold 49 combos he'd have gotten $343. He'd pay the county $348 giving him a net loss of $5. ** If he sold 48 he'd have gotten $336 and paid $346 so net loss of $10. * If he sold 51 combos he'd have gotten $357 and would have to pay the county $352, netting him a profit of $5. ** If he sold 52 he'd pull in $364 and paid $354, net profit $10. Not counting however much he has to pay to create the combos in the first place, ingredients and packaging and labor and whatnot; but that was outside the scope of the question.
I was in the French National honor society, but really?, who needs to divide fractions and more importantly, why? Yes, that was a run on sentence/question!
Kim, I am just like you. I never could show my work but got the answer right. Since I graduated high school in the “show your work” 80’s, high school was harder than college for me.
This IS a crazy school year already! And not because of the new variant. My daughter just went into kindergarten, and she's devastated when they close school due to the AIR QUALITY. We are getting the brunt of the smoke from the California fires, and it doesn't look to improve anytime soon! It's worse than lockdown
I did great until the algebra showed up. I learned how to do the problems long enough to get through the math class and promptly dumped it off and never looked back.🤣
I taught 9th/10th grade Algebra and Geometry last year….my 10th graders couldn’t even handle fractions. One of them asked me how to put 1/3 into their calculator…..
We're still doing online school. My son is ADHD. Its so hard getting him to focus (Even with meds). He started talking about the names of bones in his foot. He kept asking me, so I'd tell him. Problem is, we were supposed to be doing social studies. lol
:D lol but on a serious note memorizing stuff doesn't make us intelligent/smart that's really the problem with our schooling, we are made to memorize a lot of stuff that we forget later in life.
Omg this might be the best. BTW Kim that is what happens home schooling. You learn stuff you don’t know how you know it. lol 😂 Penn you loosing means you need to help more with homework. You are loosing your edge. Lol thanks for morning giggles.
Blew my mind when I found out t by that a 80 was a "C" a few yrs ago..never would have graduated 🎓 😪. Great stuff, by the way,,whats up with the hair Penn????
This made my brain hurt lol I’m a year 7 (7th grade-)and this is all 🤯. I’m guessing it’s because I live in a different country. I’m pretty sure periodic tables are to be learnt in high school so yea…
I missed the fraction one and like Kim I guessed on the Algebra one and got it right....I Hate Algebra I would somehow get the answer right but the teacher wanted me to show my work and it looked wrong so I would only get half credit....IF YOU GET THE ANSWER RIGHT IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW YOU GET THE ANSWER DAMNIT!!🤣😡 ok bad 9th grade flashbacks 🤣
Agree. Math used to be really fun and easy when I could just use my own method. It was intuitive. I could still do it showing my work but it became less fun and now I can’t do mental math at all as an adult.
I'm starting 9th grade and my brother is starting 7th. Today was my virtual grade nine orientation! Can't wait for school to start, and I should do this to my parents. But my mom is a high school math teacher so she'd crush the math. My dad is good at math too though. This will be interesting.....

That was me!🤣

I love Kim's reactions when she beats Penn! And some of these questions are INSANE!
2:30 to divide a fraction by a fraction use KFC
KEEP the first fraction
FLIP the second fraction
CHANGE the divide to multiply
can I eat fried chicken while I am doing the math too?
I learned this with Keep, Switch, Flip. So keep the first fraction the same, switch the division symbol to a multiplication one, and then flip the second fraction to it's reciprocal.
@@DailyProjectSekai but you remember it cos of the fried chiken
@@Declchilds no, I always remembered it. Just telling the other commenters how I learned it. Also, I want fried chicken right now
@Panda time 🐼 that works too!
Our kids may have us on “book smarts”, but we have them on “life smarts”. That’s why I send them to their dad with homework questions. 😉
Kids today also just study for a test and two weeks later they can't remember anything.

Props on taking this opportunity to brag on your son, as it is both appropriate and encouraged. Good job, mom!
Kim: "My version of hell is word problems"
Gets answer right.🤓
“ my version of hell, is word problems”
Amen!
Favorite line, "Happens to everyone, don't worry!!!" 🤣
Penn: I'm not performing well.
Kim: Happens to everone. (followed by Kim's side-glance)
Ouch. The burn, It hurts.
Kim's joy at minute 5:01 has completely made my day!
Loved it when Penn Charles said, "One and three fifths," which is the right answer.
I teach middle school math. Final answer must be simplified. No improper fractions!
@@robertbowman448 but in high school we don't like mixed numbers, so as a HS teacher I prefer the improper fractions
I aced 6th and 9th grades back in the day but man I failed this miserably 😂😂😂 good for Kim but Penn knowing the periodic table was pretty impressive
I got them all… but I teach both grades so I’d hope I know what they’ll learn (in other classes)
I love how Penn just wrote calculated the answer that quickly.
6:05 that moment after a test when the kid in class who studied their ass off found out that the cool kid just came in and wung it (winged it??...???) And still got an A.... The agony
Kim's superpower is logic ...love that!
Please excuse my dear aunt Sally! Something I have never forgotten for those crazy math problems! Actually taught my now Junior in HS that!
Good for you, Kim! I would have flunked out! By the way, I have the definition of your favorite word: F.I.N.E. = Freaking Insecure, Neurotic and Exhausted. So, we are all FINE!!

Yes, "smarter" is a relative term.
Book smarts, social smarts, tech smarts, hey I'm you're ages it hurts my head. 😄
I’m in 8th grade and I didn’t know the answers to the 6th grade ones
I’m 39 and neither did I 😂. But pay attention and if you’re struggling get help. Ask for it. I didn’t. All the best this year.

Congrats Kim👍
3:40 While hydrogen is the correct answer to the question, oxygen is an element on the periodic table. The atomic number of oxygen is 8.
Japan is not AN island. It's a chain of islands (i.e.an archipelago).
I was learning all of this 6th grade stuff in 8th grade... and I was in honors so regular 8th wasn't even learning this 😅
Kim needs to show her work
I don’t know what it is - but there’s something in Kim’s eyes that just makes me have to say - it’s ok, to let yourself wobble sometimes.
I taught 9th/10th grade Algebra and Geometry last year….my 10th graders couldn’t even handle fractions. One of them asked me how to put 1/3 into their calculator…..
The only one that tripped me up was the word problem.. I got all of them right by either guessing or knowing how to do it.
Got the score keeping wrong. Penn got 3 of the 6th grade questions right, not 4. Went off the rails after the pH question.
Me just ending 6th grade with some of the best grades on my finals 🤨 “we do not learn the same curriculum”
Well whoever kept score for this video might need some math lessons for the 6th grade quiz LOL.
Yea Kim!!!!!!! 🙌

👁didn't know most THEN!
