Each post has a circle, square and oval. One's half filled in (on the left side I think). So the answer is the square half filled in.

Ohhhh, I was looking at it horizontally, not vertically. Thanks. That is why I saw no pattern.

Here is the explanation for the boat one:

The first flag has a shape (triangle) and then the red squares change places when you move to the 2nd flag (but same shape still.)

In #3 flag, you have a shape (that parallelogram or whatever it's called) and the red squares are just like they were in flag #1. So, the next flag should be the same shape (parallelogram or whatever it's called) but with the red squares in diff. places, like 2nd flag.

boat flag was just beyond me. can someone explain what the pattern was? The others all made sense (although I think the grocery store question is open to interpretation).

It's easy if you ignore the second row of flags. If the second row meant to be useful info, I just had a lucky guess.

I got 5/5. On to the SATs!

I didn't understand the boat one at all.

I never could figure out the first two, but guessed one of them correctly. The last three seemed more appropriate.

Someone please explain the pattern ones! I got the boat one but not the second. Help.....

It could have been at a nuclear reactor plant -- the point was the story said "first, next, then, last." Unless, you're kidding, then ha ha.

Oh yeah, she's been doing questions like #5 also.

PS Whew, I got 4/5! Can I please go to kindergarten!?

5 out of 5, but will admit I guessed n more than one. And I was sweating a bit.

Oh my gosh, my 6.5 yo DD has absolutely been doing questions like #4 this summer while at Sunshine Academy. That is funny. (This is a class for rising 1st graders.)

Would the kids have to be able to read the directions themselves or have the directions read to them?
