4th Grade World Geography $2,000 PEEK COPY SAVE
What is the capital of Sweden?

Maria takes a PEEK. Alana says "Stockhome." Maria is a bad speller, too.

Next up to help is ... not Jacob. It's Spencer.

Maria thinks she knows it. "America the Beautiful."

She goes into a couple of bars... Okay, that's enough. Everyone's right for $5000.

Helping her out is Mario... and a dirty pair of tennis shoes. Her dad was a coach for the Detroit Pistons, and those shoes, once work by Bob Lanier, have always been lucky.

2nd Grade Measurements $50,000 PEEK COPY SAVE
A US month will have a Friday the 13th if the first of the month is on what day of the week?

Next up, a 27-year-old Army Ranger from Lincoln Elementary, DYLAN MACK. He was a physics major at West Point.

Starting out in the third grade with Marki...

3rd Grade Math $1,000 PEEK COPY SAVE

Before he eventually became President of the United States, Harry Truman was a Senator representing what state?
