DO NOT ATTEMPT THE TEST EARLY! REPEAT: DO NOT ATTEMPT THE TEST EARLY!
“Mental Floss, 9/3 (9/4)” IN NOTEBOOK!
Brain teasers and trick questions to scrape the mucous off your brain before the test. Purely extra credit. NO penalty for wrong answers, so you may as well guess. Write the answers in your notebook If it looks like a trick, it probably is.
- You have two coins that total 15 cents, but one of them is not a nickel. How is that possible?
- What is the volume of dirt in a hole 6 feet long, 8 feet deep, and 4 feet wide?
- A farmer had seventeen sheep; all but nine died. How many are left?
- What heavy six letter word can you take one letter away from and have eight left?
- You are in a mountain cabin, and it is freezing and dark. The cabin has an old gas lantern, a wood burning stove, and an oil burning heater. You have only one match. Which do you light first?
- A fish weighs 10 pounds plus half its weight. How much does it weigh? (Not a trick; just math.)
Recording Vocab:
- There were 3 in class vocabs worth 29 points: 10 + 10 + 9. Look in your notebook and add up your scores. If you had extra words, you might have more than 29! Yay!
- Also check to see if you did both the definitions and the Show Me You Knows.
- Then, in the chat, type VOCAB: __/20 and defs/smyk/both. So if you got 27 right in class and did both defs and SMYK’s then you would type:
VOCAB: 27/20, both +2 for Mental Floss. - If you did extra credit sentences, come back in the afternoon to show them to me.

2) Read something.
3) Stare blankly (and silently) into space.
4) Do other classwork.
