Have not faced this, actually a bit nervous that we might as we approach the grade skip.

The snarky I contemplates this response: "How do you retain your job as a professional teacher if a parent needs to explain this to you?"

And you can't play music if you can't read music. And every armchair statistician is ready to play a professional sport. The guy at Waffle House who quotes news stories verbatim should be on television, etc. Specific knowledge and conceptual knowledge are different things even if they have close ties. It's probably true that some people only passed math in school through great feats of memorization (and a pity that perhaps some of them now teach it.)
