The Groupon Guide to: School Skills
Before children can advance to the next grade in school, they must possess certain skills necessary for increasing academic success. Here are the skills your child needs before beginning the next level of their K–12 education:
Kindergarten: Familiarity with the alphabet's first (or "beginner's") half
First Grade: Ability to fake an understanding nod when difficult concepts arise
Second Grade: Readiness for spelling bees and their more dangerous cousins, spelling wasps
Third Grade: Can design and carve their own multiplication table
Fourth Grade: No longer satisfied by anecdotal evidence of cooties, demands to see empirical proof
Fifth Grade: Can judge a book by its cover
Sixth Grade: Feels an adult-like superiority over younger elementary students, derived mainly from shoebox-diorama proficiency
Seventh Grade: Recognizes that rest-of-life coolness is determined on the first day of middle school
Eighth Grade: Expertise in Hollywood-caliber makeup effects to simulate outward signs of puberty
Ninth Grade: Total rejection of parents, society, sellouts, poseurs, un-raged-against machines, traditional values, book learning, mall curfews, capitalism, know-it-alls, know-a-bits, know-nothings, playing a full game of Mousetrap instead of just building the mousetrap and watching that, anyone who hasn't seen The Matrix, anyone who has seen The Matrix, and most of their friends from middle school
10th Grade: Should be able to read by now
11th Grade: Prepares for prom by holding hundreds of practice proms in the backyard, starring dozens of neighborhood dogs in tuxedos
12th Grade: Must be a complete and functioning adult
