1. Every sentence starts with a capital. Yes. Every single one. All the time.
2. You always have to regroup in subtraction if the number on the bottom is bigger. Even if I don’t remind you. You can’t solve the problem by taking the bottom number and subtracting the top. It’s not possible. No, it’s not. Not even if you want it to be.
3. You must start adding in the ones place. Every time. Even if you know how to add the hundreds.
4. You’re not allowed to run in the walkways EVEN IF there is no teacher around to remind you.
5. Yes, you need to do the word problem.
6. My name is not Teacher.
