Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?

So here's another fun game for you. For those who know, there was a famous quiz show of the same name where adults compete with 5th graders on 5th grade questions.
The game is pretty straightforward. The host will post a question from the 1st to 5th grade, and everyone gets a chance to answer. The answer will be revealed and the next question will be posted as soon as someone gets the correct answer.
I'll play the host for now, but for anyone interested in looking up 5th grade questions on Google (or from the actual show itself) to post here, simply post that you're interested, and you get to play host till you're tired of it. I didn't want to make everyone who answers next a host because people might be too lazy (or busy) to look up questions.
But hey, if enough people are interested, I'll change it to a "next poster asks another question" format instead.

Rules:
o Each round, questions from different grades will be asked. You earn points based on which grade they are from, meaning:
o No editing your post, meaning you can't change your answer as soon as you posted it.
o Anyone who answers 10 questions correctly in a row gets to answer a 6th grade question worth 10 points.
o Don't use Google to look up the answers if you could (help yourself).

Plymouth Rock, the site where the Pilgrims landed in 1620, is located in what U.S. state?
A. Virginia
B. Massachusetts
C. New Hampshire
That's the answer.
Next one:
The mathematical expression (4x2) x 5 = 4 x (2x5) is an example of which property of multiplication?
A. Associative property
B. Commutative property
C. Transitive property
And correct. Another point to Idontrcall.
@puzzleaddict Actually, those screenshots I mentioned might be rigged, so I'm going to rely on questions from the actual show itself from now on, instead of Google.
Alright. You all are doing good, but I just learned about more rules from the gameshow (haven't seen it in a long time, so I forgot), so I'm going to shake things up now with even more rules that will earn you even more points.
For your convenience, I'll post the new rules here as well:
o There will be questions from different grades. You earn points based on which grade they are from, meaning:
- 1st grade question - 1 point
- 2nd grade question - 2 points
- 3rd grade question - 3 points
- 4th grade question - 4 points
- 5th grade question - 5 points
o Anyone who answers 10 questions correctly in a row gets to answer a 6th grade question worth 10 points.And finally, not a rule, but there won't be any more answer choices for questions from now on (seems like the show actually didn't provide any choices either... lol). So yeah, it gets harder from now.
Now, your next question, a 4th grade grammar question:
In the sentence, 'Questlove is a very good drummer', what part of speech is the word "very"?

My mistake.

By the way, a talk show host gave the same answer you did, @rosey1579. Just to put that into perspective.
AND THAT'S CORRECT! 4 points to AlpineCuriosity!
Just for the record, the talk show host was Jimmy Fallon. lol I didn't want to mention names because I didn't want you to look up the video.
Our next question is supposed to be a 4th grade spelling question... but obviously, we can't do spelling here. lol So instead, it's now a math question:
Name the type of triangle this is:
Alright, time to give the others a chance, so here's a true or false question - worth 5 points:
True or false? The front range in Colorado is where the Great Plains meet the Appalachians?
First lucky member who gets the right answer gets 5 points.

But you are great, so that makes up for it -- just a little.

Here's an easier one, a 2nd Grade Grammar question:
How many apostrophes should be in the following sentence? "Phil works down the arches, hes a dab hand at changing number plates and fitting radios."
Yeah, this is an easy one that sees, yet again, who answers the fastest.
I should walk about on the plain. Perhaps I shall become synonymous with it and earn a rename.
