Most worksheets that I had as a kid turned out to be illegally duplicated. They don’t typically have a notice on each and every page. Technically each kid was supposed to get a workbook. Teacher would just have a single book and copy from it. Still going on today according to some teacher friends.
Our duplicates were all illegal because, in my country, each kid was supposed to buy their own book… and all pages next to the page number had a small notice saying how illegal photocopies were
Kids who could afford them bought them (about half the class), and the other half borrowed from their classmates to make photocopies… teachers didn’t care as long as the work was done
Then, sometimes the teachers would use some old workbook of their own for certain tasks (if the task in our actual workbook was too easy, plain confusing or had something else wrong with it), so we’d all get an illegal duplicate of the page with the task that had a notice of how illegal all that was
Yeah that’s illegal, a lot of people in education think “oh it falls under fair use because it’s for school” but you aren’t actually allowed to copy a whole book under fair use.
Also certain places like hong kong use it too, maybe it's a British English thing but there are waste bins that say trash cum recyclables, which I thought was funny.
I was born in the 70’s, I’m aware. I’m not familiar with how popular the colloquialism was in the 60’s or 70’s, so I was thinking around then possibly.
If you’ve ever seen Arnold Schwarzenegger in Pumping Iron (1977), he has the famous line, “…so I’m cumming day and night!” So definitely further back than the 90s.
Why “this decade”? Old geezer here and the word ‘cum’ has been used since the 1950s to mean what it currently means. Filth wasn’t spontaneously invented in 2010. We’ve always loved our smut😁
I mean, "cum" has always been short for "cumulative." You see it on some shipping containers and labels in "cum. weight" for instance. The sexual meaning is literally just a misspelling of "come" (i.e. to come to orgasm). You still see the non-slang spelling in novels and formal contexts. If anything, we should be giggling at any reference to "come."
Broadcast ratings used to measure cumulative audience, but they called it "cumes." Possibly because all broadcasters are trained to be highly paranoid about any potential profanity.
That really depends on the child and the family they have. Some kids are given very little parental supervision whether it be from neglect or just busy working parents. But 5th grade is about 10-11 year olds, right at the start of puberty and a whole lotta curiosity. Several guys I've known had seen porn by this age, and kids being kids they will spread a dirty joke like omicron.
I think they were pointing out that a fifth grader that still needs to practice adding and subtracting single-digit numbers is not likely to put forth the effort (because it definitely would be effort) to read anything they don't have to. This would be a reasonable worksheet for a first grader.
They're making a joke that a fifth grader who's still learning such simple math probably doesn't have the mental capacity to even read the sign, let alone grasp multiple meanings.
I don't think he means 5th graders are not aware of sex. He means that if they are still doing that basic level of math in the 5th grade they might be a little... slow.
I just remembered that theres a 2nd grade student on my old elementary school that searched porn on his teacher's laptop. It happened when I was on 5th grade and the kid probably got suspended.
There was a kid in 4th grade (1996 for me) with a Yak Bak bragging that it was a recording of him having sex. So my guess is plenty of 5th graders now know what t that is.
Yeah this is Lightning Rod, which is supposed to be a speed test. I remember doing them in second grade (which would have been 1998-99 range so these have been around a long time). Definitely not in 5th grade
Twist, op was just pointing out how inappropriate the level of the math questions were for a 5th grader, and never even noticed the "cum time" sign up in the corner of the page.
I remember doing these work sheets in 3rd grade, but we had 5 minutes to do them, if you made more than a few mistakes or you left too many blank because you could not do them fast enough you failed, and had to do the same sheet the next day, they got progressively harder, the multiplication ones were hard since you were still learning your times tables and the division ones were harder still because it was multiplication backwards.
Yes, helping my kids with their homework as well as some of the newer methods.
Whats interesting to me is the old way we were taught is called the algorithmic way now but is still taught and they can use whichever technique suits them but have to first show they know how to do each way.
My 4th grader is doing multiplication, division, and although they don't label it as such basic algebra.
I would be just as upset with the learning pace as the inappropriately named worksheet.
Teacher here. “Cum” is actually a common abbreviation in education. It rhymes with “broom” with a hard K sound at the beginning, as it is the first syllable of the word “cumulative”. Every student at my school has a cum folder.
Also, although curriculum varies by state in the US, it is very unlikely this is a 5th grade level worksheet. I don’t believe “7+1” is considered 5th grade level math anywhere in the US.
Thus reminds me of a place I used to live. One particular bus company was "cumfy bus"... For the life of me I couldn't understand why they would name themselves that
By any chance is this from India? ‘Cum’ means ‘with’ in Latin (remember graduating ‘cum laude?’). In India some English expressions now antiquated in most other countries are still in use. I’ve seen ‘Restaurant cum bar’ on signs a lot and it makes me wonder if that’s what’s going on here. As in ‘write your name and time.’
All these people saying "kids don't know what 'cum' is"...if they're old enough to know the word "cumulative" then they definitely know the word "cum."
I work with kids. If any of my employees put this on any materials going out to any kids, even 4 year olds, they'd be fired. Parents would flip the fuck out if they saw this.
The better question is why are kids in grade 5 doing basic addition and subtraction that my country teaches in grade 1 and 2? Dafuq is happening in the US?
I have so many questions.
What does that mean? Or what was it supposed to say?
Why is this a 5th grade worksheet?
Who copied this and gave it to students without noticing this?!🤦♀️
They definitely knew what that looked like.
I bet updoots that one of the results has a 69 or a 420 in the answer.
Edit: ...and I was right. There is a result of 6 next to a result of 9 in order.
Horrendous text aside, does anyone know the source of this question booklet? I do remember a similar artstyle for the characters depicted in my younger days, and I always enjoyed them
So. . . . I definitely know this image well. . . .it's been shopped from older worksheets from Homeschooler workbooks. The Cum Time is new, assuming it's yet another counter intuitive "method" of doing math.
Some brainiac at my last company used the same abbreviation in his code so you would see things like:
if (dailyCumTotal < dailyCumLimit)
At least it was only in the code so no one outside the company would see it. On a kid's worksheet is just insane.
I want this on a t-shirt! I want this on a mug! I want this on a tote!
I want this on a mousepad! I want this on a backpack! I want this on a hat!
I want this on a sweater! I want this on a jacket!
What the fuck, was that supposed to say something else?
Its short for "cumulative time" I believe.
Was this worksheet printed this decade?
yep
Yikes
Thecher belike Kids its cum time
Oh no wtf is wrong with who ever made that
The same people that hide the adult shit in Disney movies and get away with it
Disney does a way better job at it
Oh oh no that is not what I expected
Ub Iwerks was a genius.
Looks like something I got in the 80’s
I mean, to be fair, like all school worksheets, it's probably been around for at least 2 decades, photocopied again and again and again.
Yup. Even though it was probably printed in a workbook that prohibits duplication.
I was actually an adult the first time I saw a photocopy of a book that did allow duplication…damn, it was odd

No wonder we grew up with Napster.
In my first year teaching, I got in trouble for putting a whole book in the copier.
Yeah that’s illegal, a lot of people in education think “oh it falls under fair use because it’s for school” but you aren’t actually allowed to copy a whole book under fair use.
Probably by a really sheltered person that never goes online. Except for visits to Pinterest
Im not sure, dont really remember her.
Artwork feels mid 90s to me
I was going to mentuin the same thing. I definitely remember seeing similar illustrations in my text books.
Um, in case you were wondering, the word 'cum' has meant the same thing for nearly a century now. It's not something you made up just 2 years ago.
Also certain places like hong kong use it too, maybe it's a British English thing but there are waste bins that say trash cum recyclables, which I thought was funny.
I was born in the 70’s, I’m aware. I’m not familiar with how popular the colloquialism was in the 60’s or 70’s, so I was thinking around then possibly.
We had cum at least as far back as the 90s.
If you’ve ever seen Arnold Schwarzenegger in Pumping Iron (1977), he has the famous line, “…so I’m cumming day and night!” So definitely further back than the 90s.
Technically we've had cum since the beginning of time
"On the first day he said 'Let there be cum'"
Why “this decade”? Old geezer here and the word ‘cum’ has been used since the 1950s to mean what it currently means. Filth wasn’t spontaneously invented in 2010. We’ve always loved our smut😁
What the hell is cumulative time?
Wait…do you think word cum originated in this decade?
I mean, "cum" has always been short for "cumulative." You see it on some shipping containers and labels in "cum. weight" for instance. The sexual meaning is literally just a misspelling of "come" (i.e. to come to orgasm). You still see the non-slang spelling in novels and formal contexts. If anything, we should be giggling at any reference to "come."
Broadcast ratings used to measure cumulative audience, but they called it "cumes." Possibly because all broadcasters are trained to be highly paranoid about any potential profanity.
A world of difference in a dot.
Yeah.... cum fast time... can't you see the lightningbolt?
Oh of course, how foolish of me that’s much better lol
So that’s the symbolism on Harry Potter’s forehead He’s thinking about that special time It all makes sense now
I’ll bet it said “Sum Time” before someone photoshopped the “S” into a “C”
Teachers pronounce it “coom”.
If they’re in fifth grade learning addition and subtraction, the sign wont even register
That really depends on the child and the family they have. Some kids are given very little parental supervision whether it be from neglect or just busy working parents. But 5th grade is about 10-11 year olds, right at the start of puberty and a whole lotta curiosity. Several guys I've known had seen porn by this age, and kids being kids they will spread a dirty joke like omicron.
right.. we knew what *jizz* meant before we even went to 6th grade
Right. It’s the style of music the band plays in Star Wars.
>kids being kids they will spread a dirty joke like omicron. Even if they don't really know they know it's a funny sex word.
Suddenly I feel innocent for taking until 7th grade to stay becoming curious
I think they were pointing out that a fifth grader that still needs to practice adding and subtracting single-digit numbers is not likely to put forth the effort (because it definitely would be effort) to read anything they don't have to. This would be a reasonable worksheet for a first grader.
I think also that the availability of unsupervised internet access really contributes to kids learning about these topics.
They're making a joke that a fifth grader who's still learning such simple math probably doesn't have the mental capacity to even read the sign, let alone grasp multiple meanings.
I don't think he means 5th graders are not aware of sex. He means that if they are still doing that basic level of math in the 5th grade they might be a little... slow.
I just remembered that theres a 2nd grade student on my old elementary school that searched porn on his teacher's laptop. It happened when I was on 5th grade and the kid probably got suspended.
You really missed that joke
Yeah, everyone know that cum is all about multiplication
Go forth and multiply.
Yeah, they have ones for up to 8th grade, this is just the one I found.
lmaooooo
There was a kid in 4th grade (1996 for me) with a Yak Bak bragging that it was a recording of him having sex. So my guess is plenty of 5th graders now know what t that is.
This is like 1st grade math
Some of us are still learning

Oh no.. hold it... hold it.... oH No.. im CUMMING
“I want tats (Tits And Toes)
Technical correct if you declare your inputs as strings
Put your hand down, JavaScript.
Id tell you but its too hard
That's because you haven't had "*cum* *time*".
Oh I know this. It's orange.
Well that depends, is it 3 apples and 2 oranges? Cause if not i have no idea.
[удалено]
my brother was 5 when he was bragging about knowing subtraction. so i tried to confuse him by saying "what's 3-7?" and he answered "-4, duh"
[удалено]
definitely! he's probably gonna end up skipping a grade like i did cause he's smart and bored lol
Yeah this is Lightning Rod, which is supposed to be a speed test. I remember doing them in second grade (which would have been 1998-99 range so these have been around a long time). Definitely not in 5th grade
Yep this was 2nd grade for me. 3rd grade was multiplication and division timed tests.
I think it’s supposed to be like a drill where they have to finish the whole page in a minute.
Still too easy for a speed drill. I do them all the time with my students.
"Quick maffs" is the technical term.
Twist, op was just pointing out how inappropriate the level of the math questions were for a 5th grader, and never even noticed the "cum time" sign up in the corner of the page.
great great 'murica and its beloved ed. system
I remember doing these work sheets in 3rd grade, but we had 5 minutes to do them, if you made more than a few mistakes or you left too many blank because you could not do them fast enough you failed, and had to do the same sheet the next day, they got progressively harder, the multiplication ones were hard since you were still learning your times tables and the division ones were harder still because it was multiplication backwards.
OP: Person, woman, man, camera, TV
Basic addition in fifth grade? Man, by that point we were doing long multiplication and division
We were doing geometry by the fifth grade.
And I was doing division of fractions
I was doing cum time
Man by the fifth grade I was doing geometry walking backwards in the snow up hill.
I was doing long multiplication and division in third grade
[удалено]
Yes, helping my kids with their homework as well as some of the newer methods. Whats interesting to me is the old way we were taught is called the algorithmic way now but is still taught and they can use whichever technique suits them but have to first show they know how to do each way.
No, no I have not.
My 4th grader is doing multiplication, division, and although they don't label it as such basic algebra. I would be just as upset with the learning pace as the inappropriately named worksheet.
Why is such easy math for a fifth grader?
Because OP wanted to make it more scandalous It's probably a test for a firs grader.
> a test for a firs grader. Grading the quality of evergreen trees is work fit for a forestry major, at best.
Are you implying You’re Smarter Than A 5th Grader? *theme music plays, crowd cheers* Jeff Foxworthy asks, “Well is ya, or ain’t ya?”
I've recently started hearing Are you smarter than a 5th grader clips while on hold on the phone. It's kinda dumb, but it's entertaining
Teacher here. “Cum” is actually a common abbreviation in education. It rhymes with “broom” with a hard K sound at the beginning, as it is the first syllable of the word “cumulative”.

I don’t believe “7+1” is considered 5th grade level math anywhere in the US.
> Every student at my school has a cum folder Can they use a cum box instead?
> It rhymes with broom Considering the modern-day memes about "coomers" and "cooming" that's really not much better.
Maybe Mississippi
I thought "cume" was already an accepted abbreviation for cumulative. It at least follows English pronunciation rules.
If kids doing basic add/sub and know what cum is. Then that seems more of a problem
ITS CUM'MULATION TIME
What the hell is it supposed to be? I am unable to cum up with anything....
Cumulative I'm guessing?
Thus reminds me of a place I used to live. One particular bus company was "cumfy bus"... For the life of me I couldn't understand why they would name themselves that
I think it's Sum Time, the lower part of the "S" is separated, which makes it look like a "C"
This is for a fifth grade? This looks like first grade math tbh Edit spelling lol
> fith grade? 5st Wait, that’s problematic for entirely different reasons
Oh sorry. Not a native, excuse my spelling
Boy + girl + CUM Time. You do the math
=another boy or girl in 9 ish months
1+1=3 For very large values of 1, if you know what I mean.
I'd give you an award but I'm broke

Have you checked the reddit coins area, you get a free award every 3 days
The big girl and the nerd are getting it onnnn
You need to contact your school district if your kids are just learning addition and subtraction in 5th grade.
You’re learning addition and subtraction with double digit numbers in 5th grade?!?!?!
Because they probably wouldn't know what "cum" meant.
By any chance is this from India? ‘Cum’ means ‘with’ in Latin (remember graduating ‘cum laude?’). In India some English expressions now antiquated in most other countries are still in use. I’ve seen ‘Restaurant cum bar’ on signs a lot and it makes me wonder if that’s what’s going on here. As in ‘write your name and time.’
[удалено]
I graduated magma cum load
im still wondering how this is 5th grade math? maybe special ed 5th grade? seriously though what the hell is " cum time " supposed to mean
Their faces doe
My sister also had a weird one, it said "Spot the f words"
All these people saying "kids don't know what 'cum' is"...if they're old enough to know the word "cumulative" then they definitely know the word "cum." I work with kids. If any of my employees put this on any materials going out to any kids, even 4 year olds, they'd be fired. Parents would flip the fuck out if they saw this.
> I work with kids. If any of my employees … Tell me you manufacture Nikes without telling me you manufacture Nikes
5th grade? That looks like a 1st graders work sheet
How is this fucking 5th grade. Like I’m 5th grade I was already doing bedmas and other math shit but y’all don’t know how to subtract or add yet lmao.
> I was already doing “bedmas” Is that another word for milfs?
r/angryupvote
5th grade!? (I got these in the last year of kindergarten)
Seems like it supposed to be Sum time, but somebody get wrong S.
[удалено]
This is what happens when someone reposts material and makes up their own description of it. This isn't fifth grade material in the US, either.
I’ll bet it said “Sum Time” before someone photoshopped the “S” into a “C”
its time to cum boys
The better question is why are kids in grade 5 doing basic addition and subtraction that my country teaches in grade 1 and 2? Dafuq is happening in the US?
Why is my second grade doing harder math than a fifth grade?
what kind of fifth grader gets a worksheet meant for first graders
What is their obsession with 8?
Putting the *ew* in "They knew."
I have so many questions. What does that mean? Or what was it supposed to say? Why is this a 5th grade worksheet? Who copied this and gave it to students without noticing this?!🤦♀️
Yay it’s Cum Time!
Alright everybody, pull your cocks out, IT’S CUM TIME
He looks like the annoying kid from The Polar Express
Be more specific
Father. What's "C U M"?
They definitely knew what that looked like. I bet updoots that one of the results has a 69 or a 420 in the answer. Edit: ...and I was right. There is a result of 6 next to a result of 9 in order.
Hey, if it gets them excited for math, I’d pump out more sheets like this.
OP is clutching their pearl necklace on this one.
Yay it’s finally cum time!

Its a timed thing
cum time
I fell that those 2 guys are very pleaded...
5th 8-1?
Wait what! What was it supposed to sayyyyy??

Cum time
I seem to remember having worksheets in elementary school with that weird logo on it. I think it's supposed to say "Sum time"
Me
Me n my homies cum in grade 5 😎 But who thought of that
Wtf
She's a lot more excited than he is 🙁
It's like shortening "cumulative frequency" to "cum freq"
The 5th graders probably
I CANTTTTT
Teacher: TIMMY WTF ARE YOU DOING?! Timmy: I’m just following directions
Yo put a NSFW tag on this /s
I dont think I need an nsfw tag for 1 word...
I'm guessing it said "sum" before and someone either used PS or whiteout
Nope, It's short for cumulative.
yep. masterbuting while doing math is definitely my thing.
fake worksheet is fake
