This is a spelling activity.
1) Please write these words three times each. Use printing. Use only a pencil. Neatness counts.
2) Find each word in the dictionary (it doesn't matter which dictionary). Then, write the word that comes before it, and the word that comes after it.
So, you should have three words. The middle word is the spelling word.

Answer these questions please.
**************************************************************************************************
Answer these questions please.
1. Jim had three spider legs. He ate all of them. How many legs are left? Explain?
3 subtract 3 equals zero. He had zero spider legs left. The reason he had zero left was because he ate them, and so the result was less than what he started.
2. 60/2,133
2,133 rounds to 2,000. So, 60/2,000 simplifies to 6/200 which is equal to 3/100 or 0.03. Unless you meant: 2,133/60 The answer to 2,133/60 equals: 355 1/2 or 355 R. 3

3. 9,111
x600
5,466,600
There was no need to do number 3 by long multiplication because multiplying by 600 can easily be completed by mental math. First, you multiple 9,111 by 6. Then add two zeros to the answer.
