I didn't get a chance to look over Ashley's homework last night as I had a late appointment. So, I was going over it this morning with her.

The question was something like:

28 - A=15
A = _____
Explain how you came up with your answer:

Ashley wrote:
28 - A=15
A = 13
Explain how you came up with your answer:
I thought real hard, that's all

I am still laughing.

That's what I thought. To me, that's algebra. I'd hate to see what they are doing in middle school these days. I will probably need a tutor by then... LOL.

yeah, that is totally algebra. Ugh.

That is totally funny, I love it. "I thought real hard"


Yes Math is interesting in middle school. I was a math major in college and have to relearn some of MaryBeth's work. Last night one of her equations was something like this:

Reduce: 2x(26xy-9+14xzy)

and there were exponents in there, but I don't know how to type them. lol.

I HATE when they want you to explain how you got the answer. I would've wrote the same thing as Ashley but I usually left it blank and got points off

I'm pretty sure I did that stuff in high school, not middle school.

I do that too, I'll reply to a message and not realize that it had been bumped it. It's especially funny when someone is announcing a pregnancy. LOL

Lol Ashley is so funny! rolling_smile.gif I didn't even realize this was an old post, I must have missed this last year. I was wondering at them giving out homework like that on the first day of school! tongue.gif

laugh.gif I must have missed this too. I think I would have answered like Ashley did. emlaugh.gif What they are doing in math is amazing. Kylie was even doing that stuff at the end of first grade last year. I don't even want to think about what we'll see this year. unsure.gif
