Mathematical equivalent of teaching whole-word literacy.
To: Stosh
So you are pulling something like the renormalization of gauge fields routine on basic math to force the answer forth???

Fifteen is not a multiple of ten.

my bad should have been multiples of five....because they are up until you hit 30 and you can’t do 35 because it is larger
it is still a stoooooopid way to teach addition

So in order to learn how to subtract a student has to know how to multiply and divide first, yeah that's the ticket. Why not use 8 instead of three for your first number it works. This was quite a topic of discussion on the Fourth. My nephew has a first grader being afflicted with this crap. Him and his wife are both computer nerds with strong math backgrounds and had trouble initially figuring out the point of the exercises. When they talked to the teacher she refused to explain it to them saying they weren't educators and wouldn't understand it. That meeting didn't end well😁.

That so called teacher didn’t understand it so she couldn’t explain it
