Uncharted Territory

I just gave my boys a Latin Test. This is the first test they've ever taken and I was more curious about how they would deal with it than concerned about the outcome. It just so happens that printed on the test are the possible points you can earn for each section. This intrigued them and they both commented on it but only G worked really hard to get as many points as possible. M did quite well too but when he came to the end "fill in the blank" section, I found this note: "How am I supposed to know this without a clue?"

Yep, that's my boy! It reminds me of the time I asked one of my college French professors if he had opened a vein on my paper that he had just returned to me because there were so many red markings on it. He wasn't amused. I, however, am. He still didn't get the points though.
