I had to stop watching once she couldnāt get 5 x 5. 12 x 12 was bad enoughā¦but 5 x 5=20. You can add that upā¦no need to multiply.
But they were dressed so nice and proper and smiled and all.
My god, what are they doing to these kids???
Again, 12 years of Catholic school. Canāt get much more religious than that. However, the nuns would have hung their heads in shame if a third grader couldnāt answer 5 times 5.
And you know what. I do believe the nuns would have been more upset that one of their students couldnāt answer 5 times 5 than had they failed at remembering some Bible story. Why? Because they knew we had to live in the world and they wanted us to be successful at it. They knew the difference between spiritual and reality.
Yeah, 2ās, 5ās and 10ās are pretty easy. No excuse for not knowing.
Iām particularly good at 3ās. :)
