This Cork girl’s solution to correcting her maths homework reminds us all of school days

When you're in primary school, it seems like the be all and end all.

Going to school can vary in being the best experience ever or one of the most traumatic for children. Leaving your mum or dad at the gates as you start big school all by yourself can be a daunting experience for many, with floods of tears and hissy fits anticipated every year as the new classes of Junior Infants roll in. Getting your uniform together and getting ready for school can be a job all in itself as we saw earlier in the week. Derrick Culpepper and his 3-year-old daughter Linda were going viral because of their morning routine before school where Linda was doing a stellar job of encouraging her dad to do her hair before school. The latest adorable overload we've witnessed is a picture sent into us from Sarah Murphy in Cork. Sarah's daughter Robyn goes to school in Cork and when she was sent home with corrections to do on her Maths homework, Sarah couldn't help but giggle at Robyn's solution to correcting a sum.

Sarah told us of how she discovered her little girl's novel way of fixing her homework

"My 6 year old got one answer wrong so her teacher told her to fix it... "Couldn't keep a straight face!"

When Robyn was told to correct a subtraction sum, the clever schoolgirl simply changed the subtract sign to a plus sign with a deft swipe of her pencil. Let's be honest, we ALL did it.
