In honor of the school year starting, I'd like to share something I found while walking my dog last spring. It appears to be answers to a homework assignment from a history book chapter talking about Amelia Earhart and Eleanor Roosevelt. Aside from being prominent women from roughly the same era, I have no idea why these two women were paired together in a chapter.

The unknown student tried his or her best (the writing looks distinctly feminine to me, with the rounded letters and stylized dots over the "i's"), but it's clear that often these answers are just wild guesses.

For example, the front page reads:

Clearly, the student was trying to use knowledge of word construction to figure out the meaning of these words, failing more often than not.

The back of the paper is titled "Amelia and Eleanor Go for a Ride", which might be the name of the chapter. It answers some unknown questions.

Once more, it's clear that the student has not read the chapter. I have no idea what the first question was. Perhaps it was to compare Amelia and Eleanor to another chapter in the book, which might have featured mythical personalities.

The answer to number two is clearly wrong, as the official White House page states the presidential residence was first inhabited by President John Adams and his wife, Abigail, in 1800.

While question No. 3 is correct, I'm not certain that she made her historical flight in high heels, but something tells me that's unlikely.

Moral:
Sometimes you just can't resist an obvious pun.
