She emphasizes in the importance of showing the mathematical work on paper and not just relying on mental math. Sometimes this causes Luke to make mistakes, as Algebraic procedures can involve many steps. Luke seems to be reluctant to listen and doesn't follow the recommendations Ms. Stone gives. She has talked to him and tried to help him understand the reasons behind her suggestions. What should Ms. Stone do to help Luke follow her procedures and show his work on paper? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Ms. Stone should speak to his parents so they can work on mathematical work at home.
