Correct Answers
A child is having difficulty with simple math. What should the teacher do? - ANSWER-Conduct an error
analysis
A child is trying to kick a ball but continually misses. Finally the boy kicks the ball successful. Because the
teacher did not interfere what skill was developed? - ANSWER-Perseverance
A student is having difficulty counting. What should the teacher do to help the student? - ANSWER-Have
the child count blocks out loud and after each block is counted it is placed in a bucket
A teacher notices students are not eating breakfast before school. What should the teacher do? -
ANSWER-prepare a snack and talk about it with kids
A teacher puts x+4=10 on the board. What is the concept being taught here? - ANSWER-variables
Additive and multiplicative identity - ANSWER-What number you use to get the same number back. For
addition, you add 0 to keep the same number, and with multiplication you multiply by 1 to keep the
same number.
Additive property - ANSWER-numbers can be expanded and written in terms of its place value (Ex:
452=400+50+2)
Associative Property - ANSWER-The associative property states that you can add or multiply regardless
of how the numbers are grouped ((2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4) = 9)
Base of 10 - ANSWER-Base 10 refers to the numbering system in common use. Take a number like 475,
base ten refers to the position, the 5 is in the one's place, the 7 is in the ten's place and the 4 is in the
hundred's place. Each number is 10 times the value to the right of it, hence the term base ten.
Cardinal Numbers - ANSWER-Are numbers that say how many of something there are, answers the
question "How many?"

Commutative Property - ANSWER-In mathematics, a binary operation is commutative if changing the
order of the operands does not change the result. (3 + 4 = 4 + 3 or 2 × 5 = 5 × 2)
Composite Number - ANSWER-A composite number is a positive integer that can be formed by
multiplying together two smaller positive integers (4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12)
Count On - ANSWER-Counting on is a beginning mental math strategy that involves starting with the
highest number in an addition equation and then counting up.
Dichotomous Key - ANSWER-A dichotomous key is a tool that allows the user to determine the identity
of items in the natural world, such as trees, wildflowers, mammals, reptiles, rocks, and fish. Keys consist
of a series of choices that lead the user to the correct name of a given item. "Dichotomous" means
"divided into two parts".
Distributive Property - ANSWER-The distributive property tells us how to solve equations in the form of
a(b + c). The distributive property is sometimes called the distributive law of multiplication and division.
2(3 + 6) = 2(9) = 18
Draw a square. Draw a line from one corner of the square to an opposite corner. What concept is being
taught to students? - ANSWER-Right triangles
How do you explain why extra engird does not get passed on? - ANSWER-All energy for life on Earth
comes from the sun. After the energy leaves the sun, it is used by plants on Earth where photosynthesis
converts it to sugars. The plants store chemical energy that can be used by the plants, or converted into
mechanical energy within an organism (e.g. an animal which eats the plant.) Photosynthesis is the
process that explains how energy from the sun is captured by green plants and used to make food. Most
of this energy is used to carry on the plant's life activities. The rest of the energy is passed on as food to
the next level of the food chain. The figure at the left shows energy flow in a simple food chain. Notice
that at each level of the food chain, about 90% of the energy is lost in the form of heat. The total energy
passed from one level to the next is only about one-tenth of the energy received from the previous
organism. This means that an animal eating a plant will only get about ten percent of the energy that the
