My 11-year-old son had homework on how to be more compassionate. Rather than doing the homework he decided to donate (and tell the teacher that he was donating) $25 to the against Malaria foundation.
Debatably. There was a scene in the movie "A beautiful mind" where Nash walks into a class and closes the windows because of noise. One of his student's protests because it was so hot and he says he needs to be able to think without noise. Another student goes to the window and asks the workers outside to not make so much noise for 45mins while they have the lesson so they can keep the windows open.
as a pivotal moment in the movie it was fun, Nash replies, "sometimes there is more than one solution to any given problem".
This seems like what your son has done (found another solution to the problem). So long as he understands that. He is doing well.
