😶 — but seriously. My students always start a book or an exercise book at the last page. They first right on the left page. They read tables from right to left. And the one that surprised me: when they create compound nouns they will say: “room living” and “fork cake”.

What I could get were 2 arrows pointing the other ways at the paths junction. When I saw them I thought it was just a chalk chase, not hashers

I’m the opposite to Margaret – Left to right means forward for me too.
