The Problem

The Main Problem in Dancing Hands is miscommunication. Mai was having troubles teaching Sam sign language. This is because while trying to communicate, she got things mixed up like hiding in the wrong place. But Sam and Mai worked it out and solved the problem, Sam winded up teaching Mai face to face on it because teamwork is the dreamwork. Teaching others sign language is a good skill to have and we must know and use it in many situations.
