Kanji Quiz, Part 2
This time it’s not just arithmetic problems; it’s a Japanese language (kokugo) problem.
There are six questions in total.
As an adult, can you get them right? When you’re a child, if you’re interested, it seems like you can memorize as much as you want, so I think having a variety of experiences in childhood might be important.
As of 2018, AI hasn’t yet permeated society, but what will society be like from here on?
Logic puzzles and math quizzes for the Arithmetic (Math) Olympiad
For elementary school students who are good at arithmetic, here’s a problem for you.
Since you can easily watch challenging problems like this in video form, children might get smarter and smarter.
Because there are similar patterns of solutions and ways of developing the logic, I think that by solving these kinds of problems repeatedly, they will keep getting wiser.
It’s the kind of problem that even adults might not understand.
Math quiz from La Salle Junior High School’s past entrance exam questions
It’s said to be an entrance exam question from the famous La Salle Junior High School.
Nowadays, elementary and junior high school students can watch study materials like this in video form, so students who are motivated to learn will probably see their abilities improve significantly.
Students who are good at math, in particular, may see their skills grow dramatically.
This video doesn’t just give the answer; it also explains the fundamentals, so it’s a very useful video.
An elementary school problem that’s too difficult even for adults
Here’s a quirky, absurdly difficult quiz.
It’s a video compiling funny exchanges between teachers and elementary school students who give amusing answers, as well as bizarre questions whose answers are practically impossible to figure out.
These aren’t just tough for kids—adults would have a hard time answering them too.
Take a break and enjoy this video.
It’s a lot of fun.

This is an 80-question quiz on the readings of kanji with the “fish” radical.
Whether or not something like this is useful is another matter, but with a child’s flexible mind, I feel like they could memorize them after reviewing a few times.
It seems perfect for kids who love fish or want to become kanji experts.
It’s a video you can enjoy with parents and friends.
[Arithmetic Quiz] 2018 Entrance Exam Problem from Joshi Gakuin Junior High School
![[Arithmetic Quiz] 2018 Entrance Exam Problem from Joshi Gakuin Junior High School](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ke76I6r8hzY/sddefault.jpg)
It seems this is an exam question from a famous girls’ junior high school.
Apparently, getting into a prestigious school requires a great deal of effort.
If an elementary school girl could breeze through questions like these, we adults would lose our persuasive authority.
It appears to be from a 2018 exam.
If you can solve this, you might be smarter than an excellent elementary school student.

Matchstick puzzle: Move 3 sticks to make 3 squares.
See the answer
Move the two vertical matchsticks at the top to the left and right, and move the horizontal matchstick in the top center downward.
Since you only need to make three squares, it seems like there could be infinitely many answers, but if you want a neat arrangement with no surplus or shortage, there’s only one solution. Because there are no constraints regarding the leftover matchsticks, that might be the tricky part of this problem. Please try it with the mindset of “Let’s make exactly three squares with no more and no less!”
