    I'm guessing the answer to #2 got transposed. You should go 3 spaces to the right and 1 space up instead of the other way around.

    AH, ok... So the answers to #2 are in the wrong spot. I kept trying to figure it out and he claimed they were all done in class together, so I knew they had to be right. I guess he just wrote them in the wrong spots.

    Also I see now, it's really the "corners" and not actual squares. UGH.

    I HATE MATH. Seriously.

    Thanks!

    Yes, instead of counting "spaces" you are counting "intersections". FWIW, my DS had this same homework a few weeks ago and it took me a few minutes to figure out what it was asking.

    I wouldn't assume it was your DS who made the mistake...(unfortunately).

    Ah, Envision.....just last week I had to call DS 's first grade teacher to ask her to explain a problem, and I know I am not alone. Since the nice folks around here have confirmed the correct answer, I am now studying your post for future use!

    Your DS appears to be ahead of our class, possibly way ahead which concerns me....what topic number is this? I believe DS just started topic 9.

    FWIW, I got tripped up on my son's kindergarten homework the other week.

    I have a PhD.

    Is this EnVision? Like others have said, it's counting the intersetions. Do you have online access to the lessons?
