It's Poll Week, Apparently

My nine-year-old nephew has to do a ridiculous poll for his math class, and he needs lots of responses. It's one question. Anyone feel like taking it? Please? I would thank you! My sister would thank you! My nephew would also thank you!

(Added bonus humor for anyone who has ever taken a math class: his teacher assigned this question, and also assigned him to determine the mean, mode, and median of answers. If you take it, you'll see why we are all deeply amused by this. Statistics: UR TEACHIN IT RONG.)

ETA: SurveyMonkey broke! The question was as follows:

[Poll #1354750]

Feel free to take it if you haven't already, and thanks again!

The advice from my family is teach early, and utterly without regard to curiculae. From my mom, special extra advice: start with your weakest subjects. She never admitted that she got a BA instead of a BS because she was terrified of calculus until we were both graduating high school with 2 years of calc college credit. She just told us math was easy, and we were pretty gullible. >_>
