We see what you did there! And we can’t stop chuckling.
Math can be tricky. Our teachers tell us that we can use our fingers to help with addition, but it’s easy to get lost with our phalanges flying about. That’s why we need our friends to give us a quick hint, even if it’s to solve a simple math problem.
But just be careful about how you interpret any help you might get…
When your buddy shows “three” in the same way as the sign for “OK”, you’ve just got to roll with it and write that answer on the board. 2+1=3? No way! 2+1=OK. And it will be OK, no matter what problem we have to solve in the future.
