Why Showing Your Work Matters

When you show your steps, it's easier to catch mistakes and explain your thinking. This helps your teacher see how you solved the problem and can earn you extra points!

How to Show

  • Write each step clearly on your paper.
  • Label your answers and circle the final one.
  • Check your work for mistakes before turning it in.

Examples

  • Label units when converting measurements.
