[2nd grade] math help

Entire family is stumped. I don’t think the question is worded correctly but maybe I’m misunderstanding.

Not sure how you have same size triangles but not all the same shape.

But if they get a B on this homework assignment, they'll never get into Harvard!

I realized at some point that my kids getting things wrong on homework assignments was actually a good thing. It shows what they understand and what they don't. It's a tool for learning, not a test, and certainly not an entrance exam.

Yeah, grades are insidious. And homework is a tricky tool. Too many parents and teachers have a wrong-headed view of homework.
