But their friend, 10, is! LINK
It's an isolated math fact!

I can do fairly complex calculations in my head and that is exactly the method I've used all my life. I'm glad to see it's been formalized.
It's easy to poke fun at something you don't understand. Do you move your lips when you read?

What if they're uncomfortable with 8+7? If they're uncomfortable with 5+6, are they uncomfortable with 7+4? Or 8+3? I (shockingly) get what she's doing in the example, but it leads to more confusing situations and possibilities.
All you have to fricking do is teach them how to add all single digit number combinations, then teach the process of adding double digit numbers.

1 + 1 = 10. 9 + 5 = E. Just convert the numbers to hex, perform the arithmetic and transform into decimal.

I've been doing Math like this in my head all my life. I'm way ahead of common core. Somebody give me a cookie.

frick start with 10
Start with counting on you fingers!
Thats how we all did it. After enough times you dont need to do that any longer

Urban Common Core Version:
9 = black man's penis size
6 = White Man's penis size
You add them together, you get a large sex organ with a high credit rating and "privileges".
THAT will score you:
a 'Dime (10) piece' who will bring her own Fifth (5) of MD20/20.
10 + 5 = 15!!!

What's next for the entitlement generation? Perhaps they want me to do the math for them.

9-6=Bama mulligan

It has to be taught using simple equations to take hold of understanding the lager sequences... I believe having a base of memorization on smaller numbers is great but being able to use this method for larger sequences is a solid tool. The video just picks apart the beginning and not the end result

My team won the Louisiana state math bowl in 5th grade on the back of my performance in the mental math section using this exact method.

That is actually how I add.
This also prepares kids for binary, hex, base36, etc.

frick the way she explains it is more confusing than just saying 9+6=15

That method has been around forever, interesting that the pro common core folks are publicizing the less controversial portions and not the shite storm they are really pushing
