I think that I have heard of a similar version of the joke before, but its always nice to hear it again.
3 brothers, stupid, manners and trouble.
One day, trouble got lost.
The other two brothers decided to report it to the police.
Since, manners din know english, he decided to wait outside the police station.
Policeman "yes sir, how may I help you? What is your name?"
Stupid, "stupid"
"where is ur manners?" getting angry.
"outside"
"Are you looking for trouble?"
"Yes"

thats difficult if its the first time your are trying. plus 5, plus 4, minus 7, plus 10. If the problem is the time, well, you need alot of practice before you become familiar with the abacus, I remember having trouble for months!

In some countries like singapore, they are making it compulsory for primary 2 and 3 kids to learn the basics of abacus. I think that it really comes in useful when you are not allowed a calculator in the exam. Those who learn abacus do have a better advantage. But, they need to practice for years before they can really get their hands to move that fast. I remember when I first learnt abacus, I used to accidentally hit my beads and there goes my hard worked out answers.

Yea...
But it can be really useful to students like me. All my research materials come from wikipedia.

Thank you so much for your help, you guys have got no idea how greatful we really are.
Well, my idea is much too simple for 13 year olds, theyre meant for 10 to 11 year olds. You are from Methodist Girls' School right? Shouldn't be a problem for students there...
Well, THAT's the whole problem, "good school=high expectations".
Well then my ideas aren't going to be much good, are they . Oh well, I'll try to think of some more.
Actually, they were quite useful. As we said earlier, our school has really high expectations. Plus, we are actually given alot of time to work on the project. We have to submit our proposals by October 15th, and submit our selected project completed by 7th January next year. Because of our long time-line, we are required to study a particular topic and work on our project. We are starting slightly earlier as our end-of-year exams are from Oct 1st to 14th, so we wouldnt have time after that.
Thank you so much again!!

Oops, I forgot to answer your question Identity. Our level of math is about secondary 1, I think it is about grade 7. We are 13 year olds.
