[quote=Anonymous]Learning to show your work is important. I TA'd calculus and chemistry in college and was constantly amazed how many aspiring engineers couldn't write down and solve an equation. They were kids who were "good" at math and used to doing problems in their heads. They had never learned the skill of showing their work. Each and every one of these show offs struggled doing college level math and science. Encourage your kids to show work on easy problems. Math builds and it's helpful to rely on those easy steps being easy when faced with a hard problem that you can't solve without working at it. [/quote]
