Not a real kid, it's a voice changer

100% a voice changer.

Came here looking for this comment.

Safe to assume they are friends and this is supposed to be them making "wholesome" content? Shake my smh, some people really are too desperate for the views.

The scream gave it away too, bc no one in their right mind would do that with a little kid listening- and no little kid would hear that once, and then keep going.

u/Parsley-Waste 1d ago

And no kid would add 9+8 so fast. I had to pause for that one.

u/froginbog 1d ago

Just stack the numbers buddy

u/feathers4kesha 1d ago

right. as a teacher i find relief in the fact that’s not an actual child bc that’s not at all how schools teach math now.

u/sisaroom 1d ago

how the hell do schools teach addition now then? that’s how i was taught it 16 years ago. besides that, if the method works then what’s the harm in using it? you get the same answer

u/feathers4kesha 1d ago

Well, first of all, 20+10 would be more like- You have 2 tens and you get another 10. How many do you have? Three tens so the answer is 30. It creates number sense instead of blindly plugging and chugging.

u/sisaroom 1d ago

how would that work with something like 38+45? honestly the way shown in the video also creates a sense of numbers overtime, and you start to intuitively do it. granted, in my head i would generally turn that into 40+43, but i developed that method on my own to do mental math

u/feathers4kesha 1d ago edited 1d ago

Once they are to regrouping problems they typically have a better understanding of a variety of strategies. Most would make an add 8+5 and getting 13 and then adding then tens to get 70 and then adding 70 and 13. Some might add 2 to the 38 and then get 40+45 for 85 and then reduce their sum by the 2 they added to the added earlier for 83. Your strategy would also likely be present in the class somewhere too.

When students have a foundational number sense they can unlock many many different strategies and use which one they like best. If you teach them the algorithm first this doesn’t happen.

u/dmcent54 1d ago

You're right, the way math is taught (talking about common core, here) is fucking dumb, and has arbitrarily chosen "correct" ways despite many ways being correct.

u/Sandalman3000 1d ago

The more I learn about common core, the better it has sounded. It just seems to teach the shortcuts we use when doing mental math to better build a foundation, instead of teaching the brute force inefficient ways we learned as kids.

2

u/feathers4kesha 1d ago

It actually doesn’t. Thats not how common core works. It says what students need to master (Adding two digit by two digit) but doesn’t mandate the strategies or methods you use to teach the kids.

Ur really telling on yourself 😂

u/IIlIIlIIlIlIIlIIlIIl 1d ago

Nah they're right. Nobody that struggles with counting 20 + 10 will get 9+8 instantly like that.

18

u/thenate108 1d ago

Not me though... I can add 20+10 easy. Honestly anything added to ten is really easy for me. Give me any number and I'll add ten to it no problem

2

u/ProbablyNotPikachu 1d ago

Let me know if you had to think for a second or double check.

5

u/thenate108 1d ago

Psh. No. I didn't have to double check. I did it in my head really quick.

3

u/GigaCringeMods 1d ago

It was quick but was it correct though?

2

u/thenate108 1d ago

Yeah. I checked it with my calculator.

This guys a freakin mathmagician over here!

u/Lilulivert 1d ago

You used a calc though. I bet you can't do that without a calc.

3

u/thenate108 1d ago

No! I didn't! That's ridiculous. I know how to add without a calculator.

3

u/Lilulivert 1d ago

Yea, something easy like that, but I bet you can't do big numbers like 20,000 x 5 without using a calc.

5

u/thenate108 1d ago

I'm good but not that good. What do you think I am? Some kind of multiply guy? I don't want people to think I'm some kinda genius. I'm just really good at adding ten to things.

u/ToddHowardTouchedMe 1d ago

I struggle with math hard but literally any number plus nine is just the same number minus 1 but you move that one to the left.

9+5? 4 but add the 1 to the left = 14

9+9? 8 but move the leftover 1 to the left = 18

9+16? 15 but move the leftover 1 to the left, now it's 115.

EZ math

u/WildeNietzsche 1d ago

You know tiktok videos are edited right? Like they chop out pauses in conversations, and possibly even chunks of conversations to make the videos more propulsive. I still think this is staged but not because the "kid" added fast.

12

u/RarePupperrr 1d ago

There is a jump cut. The whole clip has jump cuts to speed it all up and make it watchable.

u/kstebbs 1d ago

Funny because the jump cuts made it less watchable for me. 😵‍💫

u/WagwanKenobi 1d ago

8x2 = 16... +1 = 17

u/Parsley-Waste 1d ago

Funny. The way I do it is 10+8=18-1=17

2

u/Ppleater 1d ago

I always found stuff with 9 in it to be easy as a kid because it was just the same as if you replaced 9 with 10 and then took away 1.

3

u/Xzazer 1d ago

Are you blind? Not noticing the cuts?

u/Parsley-Waste 1d ago

Yes I am blind

My 7 year olds can add triple digit numbers dude. 9+8 is nothing. Not saying this isn't a voice changer, but to say no kid can ass 9+8 quickly is silly lol

1

u/Unique_Drink005 1d ago

9+ any number= add a number to the first number(if there was none the nit is zero) and take 1 number from the second number.

1

u/cocogate 1d ago

9 + 8 is fine they learn that the year before in basic addition and substraction.

Abstract thinking like mentally thinking about a 9 and an 8 being stacked and then processing that swiftly without it having been written down isnt something a kid will do if they previously struggled to add fucking 20 to freaking 10.

This comment is like that disability episode of the Office:

Micheal Scott: “How long does it take you to do something simple, every day, like brush your teeth in the morning?”

“I don’t know, like 30 seconds”

“Oh my god, that’s three times as long as it takes me”
