[quote=Anonymous]It totally depends on the grade. In early elementary school my kids were marked down for not showing steps to ridiculously easy problems. They also were so annoyed at rounding problems like round 28+ 53 to the nearest 10. They couldn't understand why anyone would have to round that problem and couldn't just get the correct and accurate answer. Since there was no option to be in accelerated math based on math grades I didn't care. When they took online math tests where you didn't have to show work, they always scored super high. Once they got to algebra, I told them they needed to start showing some steps because teachers often would give partial credit. [/quote]
