    Info didn’t provide…

    My son, 4-5th grade level, struggled with the clearness of questions per the practice sheet and story read. One of the questions asks if any were true, one being Edison was deaf. Well, in the story it mentions he was NEARLY deaf, yet, the answer provided says he WAS deaf and that was to be marked TRUE. Pertaining the importance of physical attributes, being completely deaf and nearly deaf are different; nearly deaf- could he still hear some things? Was a bit disheartening.
