Math Homework

Madeleine's kindergarten class recently learned about "greater than," "less than," and "equal" signs.  In order to remember the difference between < and >, the class was taught that the alligator is always eating the bigger number.

Apparently Madeleine wanted to make this a literal representation in her math homework:

I like the creativity with the added teeth and all, but I'm pretty sure Madeleine's teacher was not intending for the kids to make the symbols actual alligator mouths.

Yet another example of why I have to sit and supervise this kid when she does her homework.
