Perplexing Math

My dear daughter had been re-working her math page to correct a few problems. Finally, she said to me, "Mom, this answer has to be right! I've re-worked it twice and it has to be right." Just to make sure, I watched her re-work the problem once more and she was right; the answer was correct.

So, I went to check the teacher manual, because there are sometimes printing mistakes. The TM was correct. As it turns out, she was re-working a problem that was NOT marked incorrect.

Just a friendly reminder to children ... make sure the problem NEEDS to be corrected before you start re-working it!
