I took a look at it and I must say that's pretty cool on how you have the sites index together like that.

The great thing about word problems is they make you think creatively about a problem. I've collected a bunch of very good websites that offer free word problems for 3rd graders so my kid can work on them over the summer. I put them in an online binder so that my daughter can open the binder online and print out the worksheets without getting distracted by other websites.

Then Thanksgiving would fall on the 25th, if the month started on a Wednesday, like July does this year, you can see that the holiday would fall on the 23rd. I would just have her flip through the calendar and figure it out for each month starting on a different day. That is the approach I would take with it if it were my dd's math problem. Hope I've helped! :)Shawntelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11222713234428432856noreply@blogger.com
