Third grade? Brings back memories.
**********
Fifth grade cause me problems.

Not because I had problems with it, I had moved from an elementary school near the University of Florida to a south Florida tourist center on the beach.

I already knew virtually everything being taught. The teacher's solution was to make me practice cursive writing repeatedly, because I wrote too small.

A year or so later, I'll never forget arguing with another student about the location of the University of Florida.

When I insisted that UF was in Gainesville, the teacher corrected me, and informed me that the University of Florida was located in Jacksonville, after all, the Gator Bowl was located there.
