Caleb is in 6th grade now, which means he is getting real grades for the first time. After a few weeks of school, we're starting to see some results coming in, and overall we are very proud of him that he has an A or B in every class. The only blemish was some math assignment where he got a 45. Tonight I was driving him to his tutor and we were talking about it.
He said, "Yea I got that 45. But I lost 5 points for turning it in late.".
"I think that's your only assignment where you have something other than an A or B. That's really good Caleb," I said. Caleb then began recounting all his assignments, which it appears he has memorized. "I got an A, an A, an A, an A, an A, an A, an A, a B, a B, a B, a B...".
"Wow! You remember all your grades," thinking he's got a plan. "Are you trying to get all A's?" I asked. Not one to be tied to a commitment he might be tracked on, Caleb shot back, "Oh no... I'm not trying to do anything!"
