4th Grade Math

I know they're learning how to round numbers, but this question just seemed odd to me. If you already know exactly how many pages Timothy read, why would you need to know "about how many" he read? Who cares?

Hmmm... would 300 be correct as well?

i think jenica could write a short book on "homework questions that seemed odd".

i particularly love when the student's method must be Explain-ed. i salute E. for using a (technically) complete sentence - J. would have just written "rondned".
