Hope the film was worth missing Marydoll !

Ooops sorry are we even allowed to call teacher by her first name ? Giggling from the back row

littleflo, this is the easiest way to work it out.
It is a problem solving strategy we taught called, Make a table.
You could also try, Guess, check and improve.

I'm in big trouble! We were supposed to be watching a film half an hour ago!

Ok I have it now. Even with the new maths or any other fandangle, 37 take away 17 won’t ever be 12. I am sitting in the corner with my dunces hat on.

A? B, you were late for class ! We waited for you, hoping you would appear, wila.

See you tomorrow, If I'm spared, as my mother used to say.

PS, I hope you aren't using bad language in class, wila. I may have to report you to GNHQ, we are innocents on this thread.

Last bunch is short one banana, so it's only worth 3 'cents' instead of 4!
