Putting One And One Together

Two weeks ago while I was at my internship, a student came up to me and questioned if I was going to be with them Friday since I missed Tuesday (because of the half day they had). I was astonished and surprised because I felt as if they were not able to comprehend that if I miss a day I make it up. Instead of answering the student I asked him excitingly "How in the world did you figure that out? I didn't even have to tell you my schedule because you figured it out yourself!"  He simply replied "I don't know." Even though it wasn't a big deal, it was a huge occurrence for me because people often doubt younger students, when in fact they are more observant and more quick to piece things together than adults!
