She's a smartie!

Today's post is about my little sissy Hannah Banana. Yesterday, Hannah attended "math contest", for the second year in a row.(She's the smart child, I'm the fun one! :) jk)

Math Contest explanation= When a whole bunch of little 4th thru 8th grade math geniuses go and take math tests all day in Greensburg..

This year, 27 fifth graders from our surrounding league went. Now, not to brag or anything, buuuuuutttttttttttt I'm going to have to say that I think I have a math genius as a little sister:) who of which I am very proud of. She's gone to this contest both her 4th and 5th grade years, each time placing in a least one category.

This year she got:

• FIFTH in problem solving, this category contains the worst math problems ever because most are word questions.
• FIFTH in geometry! woo hoo!
• NINTH in mental math. which means the little smartie pants answered all the problems without using a calculator on any problem. Which is something I can hardly even do anymore.

Now need I remind you that there were 27 students there and she placed in all three tests? I think she's brilliant. haaaa mostly because I was never smart enough to be chosen to go when I was little. I'm going to have to say she did pretty dang good representing Bucklin junior high. :)

Well that's all for now! peace(: hehe
