Common Core teacher to student in every school district: "I don't care that you added the numbers and got the right answer. You aren't to do it that way. You have to do it by drawing pictures of everything and then counting them on your fingers. It's better this way."

Or "Yes I see you got the actual answer but you should have estimated instead, to get a close answer. So you get it wrong."
