I went to school for 6 and a half hours if I read 13 books each hour by the end of school how many books have I read?After school I went to a forest.There were 13 trees.I stayed there for 3 hours.How many minutes did I stay in the forest?If every minute I saw 3 birds in each tree how many birds would I see in all after 3 hours?

A Math Curse By Lilly M.

My Math Curse
By Lilly M.
Jefferson School For the Arts

I woke up at 5:01 a.m. and I even went to bed early last night. I read for 32 minutes. If I read a page and a half every minute, how many pages did I read? I had breakfast from 5:30 to 5:39. How many seconds was I eating breakfast? I went back to sleep for 1,800 seconds. How many minutes did I go back to sleep for?

I wake up at 6:28 [Does wake really go up?]. My bus leaves at 8:14 a.m., and I want to be on time. It takes me 5 min. to get up and get my clothes on and 7 to get downstairs. Next I play on the computer for 1 hour, then I hit my brother for 3min. Will I be on time? If so how much longer could I sleep?
