JOTD
A teacher asked his students a math question.

"You have one dollar. Your parents give you five dollars. How much money do you have?"
After some thinking, about half the class raised their hands. The teacher called on a little girl in the front.
"One dollar!" she said.
The teacher, conflicted on why the girl can't add, explained to her and the whole class how adding 1+5 works. At the end of class, the students were dismissed. A staff member oversaw the whole thing, and approached the teacher.
"What the hell were you thinking asking that type of question?" the staff member asked.
"What? I just asked them how much money 1+5 is- They couldn't even answer it!"
"You said their parents gave them five dollars."
"Yeah, so?"
"You work at an orphanage, you moron!"
