[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She needs to learn to show her work or lose points [/quote] unfortunately this... she will learn the hard way. My DC was doing calculus in their head, and didn't show their work. They got dinged. Then one time, the teacher sort of jokingly said to DC that they could do one exam without showing their work. DC thought it was the whole exam, but the teacher meant just one page. LOL. So, DC got marked down. They were allowed to show their work later, and the teacher gave back the points. Yes, my kid is a math genius. Didn't get it from me. They're a dual math major in college now, still doing math in their head. Your kid might be very advanced in math like mine is. I tell DC doesn't matter how smart they are in math or how dumb it is to show their work; they still have to show their work to get the grade.[/quote]
