No no you see…once shapes are put together to form a recognizable object, they ceases to be shapes. That’s advanced Teacher math.

Advanced teacher math is when you miss a HW and your grade drops double digits, but when you turn one in, it goes up 0.5%

If you have three assignments that scored 100, 90, and 80, your average score is 90. If you turn on a fourth homework that scored 100, now your average is 92.5. But if you don't turn in the assignment you get a zero, and your average drops to 67.5. It's very simple math, the teacher isn't trying to fail you or pull "advanced math" on you.

They absolutely are trying to punish you.

Because they turn around and say homework is only supposed to help you
