Mt. Pleasant Classical Academy

Yesterday MK and SK sat down and began the math drill race. MK, determined to beat his time of 100 multiplication facts in 4 minutes, raced with vigor through his sheet. Suddenly he shouted “I’m DONE!”

And SK was heard to exclaim, “He beat me. I can’t believe he beat me.”

MK completed his 100 multiplication problems in 3 minutes and 2 seconds, a full minute faster than last Friday’s time. He was laughing and jumping for joy!

Today, the race was on. SK was determined to go faster than MK and not be beat by his little brother. They both won. MK again did 100 multiplication problems in 3 minutes and Michael did them in 2-1/2 minutes. They have both improved on how quickly they can recall their math facts but the race is on. MK is determined to go faster than MK and SK is determined to not allow that to happen again.
