If my child is ever presented with that kind of math problem, I fully expect him to write 8 + 5 = 13 GO gently caress YOURSELF with a frozen turd I have prepared the previous night. This child will chug apple-juice from a can of PBR. :patriot:

(j/k but gently caress all math. Thanks for being the cornerstone of all civilization but I am sick of solving your problems.)

6+6=12 is not any different between the "old way" and common core. poo poo, the common core standards explicitly specify that students should have the sums of all pairs of single digit numbers memorized. What's different is what you said the first time. When discussion addition in a broader sense, the traditional way focuses on the "carry the 1" - the mechanical procedure of addition, observing an immutable problem and calculating an answer by totaling up columns of single digit numbers. Common core focuses on the "make 10" - the concept of a tens digit, the properties of addition, reasoning about the properties of an equation and how to manipulate it into a more easily solvable form.

I have no idea what this means. :shrug:

I bet you argued with the teacher about showing your work, didn't you?

I certainly did. You'd get a problem like:

4 x 7 + 3 x 8

and I'd write out

28+
24

5^�2

and be told I hadn't shown my working. I still have no idea what working they thought I was leaving out.

I was farting around on Khan Academy a few weeks back and it gave me a positive number plus a negative number problem. I realized I had never been taught WHY that makes a positive number and had to really look around for answers beyond "because it just is and math is correct or incorrect". Same thing for why you can invert and multiply when dividing fractions. I say if kids are learning the why these days then good, even if it does look convoluted.

I still don't understand what this "common core" method is, but I certainly learned this stuff. Did you not do stuff with number lines in maths class where they explain it as addition moving to the right on the line and subtraction moving to the left?

Dear Parents,

If you never understood or liked math as a kid you're probably not gonna understand your child's math homework either.

Also if you did understand maths, they're teaching it in a completely different way now and you're not going to understand it anyway. :eng99:

They wanted you to write out what 4 x 7 and 3 x 8 equalled separately before going to your first step, even though they knew what you meant and your work was correct.

It's a boring and drudging way of asking you not to skip steps no matter how rote because taking the time to check the foundation you're working from gives a higher chance you won't waste time doing everything else right yet getting the final answer wrong cause you got cocky and rushed.

I learned that when I was goddamn 10.

In a nut shell, common core math, common core English and the Next Generation Science Standards are all trying to get at understanding rather than knowledge, and this is a nuance that a lot of people don't really get. Even many teachers don't get it which leads to wacky implementation. It's great that you know off the top of your head what 7x8 is, but do you know why? That's what common core questions are trying to elicit from students. Whether you value that or not is an individual preference but let's at least not act like this is some weird moon people science.

No poo poo but again it's about making sure you follow a process rather than getting into the habit of shortcutting every "small" task in your head, which depending on the number crunching you're doing can gently caress up a shitload of work or even endanger lives if you have that 1 in 1,000 moment where you go with (7x4=32) in your head because you were tired or slightly distracted or some other poo poo. I'm not saying everyone actually works that way or that I even wholly agree with it, but that's why the teachers are such pedantic assholes about it.

Yes, because it's seven, eight times. Are you supposed to write down 7 x 8 = 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 56? Why not break every one of those sevens down into seven ones while you're at it?

What is the "process" for multiplying two single-digit numbers? The only one I know of is counting multiples and you're certainly not going to do that every time.

So you really are that autistic huh?

You just write out (7x8=56). That's it. That shows you understand basic multiplication and took the half-second needed to confirm what you likely came up with in a few milliseconds. Congrats, now can transfer that thought process to other things you do.

This also (seriously) came up when I googled "Funny Picture."
