Today's question and answer is my 'Racecar' style, yet it offers an opportunity for me to mention another mathematical strategy, as well. This is the strategy I call the 'Hello?' strategy for those of us who analyze, think again, and create new possibilities. On a standardized test, to be successful, use that creative ability to think as though you are the test writer. The results of your choices will not always be the same, but you will know which answer is correct.
Today's language arts, sentence correction, question and possible answers is a classic example.
These are the easiest questions for me. My strategy includes eliminating all the short answers.after choosing the correct one. I also must NOT be so 'creative' and 'analytical' that I see a way for the obvious error to be correct, as well. See this blog entry continued today.judiethcarol&rocketcatmarch2010
