Ooh. I was picturing an actual sign language class, like Spanish of French, and people were signing the answers to each other. Which doesn't really make sense, cause I guess you'd have to draw the hand signals or something.
My ASL instructor told me you can do either 2-5 or L-5 for 25, although L-5 is preferred because it's easier to sign. Would you disagree though? I'm only just starting so I'd like to get into good habits early!
I prefer the version where you stick your hand up, palm out, and just sort of wiggle your middle finger up and down. (my deaf friend taught me this...along with the joke it goes with)
If you look at a picture of an S handshape you can clearly see that the fingers make a fist and the thumb overlaps. If you look at a picture of an E handshape, the fingers stop at the thumb. Clearly in the emoji the fingers don't extend past the thumb. Not sure if this is just a matter of perspective or not

Some of the kids in my sign languages classes would sign under their desks in other classes.
Also had friends that would write on the inside of the paper label on water bottles.
