I apologize for the delay in posting helpful hints for this week's homework packet! This packet is due Friday, November 7.
The only page which students may not understand this week is the "Factor Tree" page. We will be spending the majority of this week in math working on factors. Students may have a difficult time at first with this page, but if they wait to the end of the week to do it, it shouldn't take more than five minutes to complete.
Also, a big THANK YOU to parents who helped their students on last week's difficult story problems. Many have expressed concern that these were hard. You're right--they are! We've been working in class on attempting to problem solve, even when it is difficult. Remember, it is better to have a wrong answer than no answer at all.
Good luck, and let me know if there are any questions or concerns!
