[CTVNews] A math question comparing the weight of three hypothetical Grade 4 girls offended one Utah student enough that she refused to answer it and is speaking out.
"Sorry I won't (write) this it's rood," wrote 9-year-old Rhythm on her homework, circling the question and adding "What!!!!" above it. The question presented the weights of Isabel, Irene and Sue and asked students to determine how much heavier Isabel is than the lightest of the three.
Now I know what those Woke Maths workshops were about.
"I thought it was offensive," said Rhythm in an interview with Fox 13 News in Murray, Utah. "Girls shouldn't be comparing each other. I know it was a math problem, but I didn't think that was really OK."
