How Giorgio Learned to Count!
Repeat and Memorize!
Giorgio learns to count by repetition:
The proud mother, Bianca, watches joyfully as her five-year-old son confidently counts on his classic wooden abacus bead counting frame.
She pays close attention to his words and listens as he counts:
“Six plus one is the sum of bitch is seven.
Seven plus one is the sum of bitch is eight.
Eight plus one is the sum of bitch is nine.
Nine plus one is the sum of bitch is ten.”
Right then, Bianca asks her son to stop reciting his homework and says, “Is this how you learn at school?”
Giorgio responds, “Yes, Mama, we all say it this way from our teacher, Miss Velma.”
Bianca removes her apron, lifts her son, buckles him into his car seat, and drives to school.
Bianca Encounters Giorgio’s teacher in her classroom, diligently preparing lessons for the next day.
“Miss Velma, I’m concerned about my son’s math education. I need you to assess his addition skills. What he recites does not sound right to me!”
“Come on, Giorgio, count for Miss Velma.”
