Madelyn's homework involved matching words to spaced that match the height of the letters. For example, "look" would fit in a tall rectangle, a short square, a short square, and a tall rectangle.

Madelyn: I need help with my homework! I'm confused!
Me: Okay, bring it here. What don't you understand?
Madelyn: I'm on the last one and the only word left doesn't fit.
Me, looking at three short squares and a tall rectangle with the last word "and": Huh, you're right. Go ahead and put "and" in the spaces and write a note about it to your teacher.
Madelyn: Okay!

Her note ('And is the only word left and it would fit if this emty space is't thar."):
