You certainly get credit for thinking "outside of the box."

Congratulations~!

Baby bunnies are kittens or kits. But I don't know if that's what they want???

Sadly, the people making up the school programs/workbooks/etc are companies/contractors hired to provide this junk. This is NOTHING.

Pathetic.

Well I just asked my granddaughter who is in kindergarten, she was tapping her foot reading the paper but did not know the rabbit answer, but tapping is a thing. Who knew.

sticking with the T theme, i dont find this a TRAVESTY if the teacher reminds the students that the T sound may not necessarily come at the beginning of the word. it will just make them think a bit harder......and we already came up with at least two words that have a T that fit that picture.....maybe there are more?

Looks like Common Core Kindergarten is alive and well. My daughter and I decided that "waffles" will be the answer to any absurd question....show your work...

Well, we know it's a 'T' word so I'll go with - too cute!

That was my first thought, too!

Then I thought of Thumper, but figured the kids wouldn't come up with something like that.

I haven't looked at the "correct" answer yet, but I'm already not impressed.

True story: Years ago I decided to take a preliminary test for MENSA. One of the questions was (I kid you not): "If snow is white, what color are holly berries?"

I thought "WTH???" I went with the obvious: red. And guess what? It was the correct answer! To this day I have no idea what on earth they were thinking about. I passed the preliminary test and declined the invitation to take the full one for admission to MENSA. (And I don't mean to offend anyone in MENSA; I worked with a great colleague who was a member. But...really???)

Okay...I just looked at the "correct" answer Wildcat Fan posted and I think it's absurd.

It would require a leap in thinking that I would never expect from a kindergartner. And people get paid good money to think up these ridiculous things?

The directions should say that. When there are 3 pictures (out of 4) clearly with T as the beginning letter, the last word probably should be the same. Also, there is no vet in the last picture, just animals (would be pets).

When was this assignment originally printed?
