[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Attention to detail is very important in math and many math heavy careers. Leaving off the “x=“ is akin to not including units. The number by itself means nothing. Hopefully she now has a better understanding of the teachers expectations and won’t make this mistake again. Even if she doesn’t end up in a math heavy career, this type of attention to detail and checking her work will pay off in almost all aspects of life. You should encourage her to meet the challenge and have her practice correcting details in her work.[/quote] Explained it to mine that while some teachers may give more leeway, theirs does not and now that they know that, make sure to be careful with answers. If continues to bug them, can give example that a writing teacher would likely take points off for incomplete sentences, wrong use of punctuation, verb/subject agreement, etc.[/quote]
