One time I had a class of seniors at a local community centre. Starting off
with "put 2 over 3, put 2 over 1 and 4 over 3" one lady couldn't understand
that the bobbin then took on the number of the space it was in, not the
number it was when it started. Anyway, after several tries of explaining
and she still didn't understand I put 4 chairs in front and had 4 parcels on
the chairs and showed her two over 3 - she didn't have to remember which
parcel was which, she had to remember that the chairs were 2 and 3.
Finally, the penny dropped.
Later as I was going round the class, I heard a little mutter from her "put
chair 2 over chair 3....."
