I can see where you're coming from....those questions do seem a bit difficult, but on the other hand they also fit the curriculum. Making harder sets BS only does seem like a solution. Something you should ask Christy about when you talk to her: she mentioned that she would be switching grades next year. I believe she'll be teaching 4th grade, but it'd be wise to verify this with Christy so that we make the right question sets.
