It is crazy. I think it is kept to a minimum of details, though. My son is in first grade this year also and is doing word problems in math too! Thank goodness he understands it! Sometimes I think they are pushing these kids to the limit...when he was in Kindergarten last year, it was all academic. When I was in Kinder, all I remember doing was play!!!
