Dear,Mrs.Garces,

I think the answer for the math problem of the day is (3,2) because if she goes 3 spaces right and 2 spaces up, then the school is located at cordinate (3,2).

dear 5th Grade Teachers,

I believe that I know the math problem of the day. The answer is [3,2]. That is the answer that I think the school point is. That was my answer to the math problem of the day.

Dear Mrs. Garces,
I think I know the answer to today's math question of the day. I think it is (3,2). I think this because she went the to the right 3 times which is x, and 2 up which is y.

Dear Mrs. Garces,
I thought about the answer and got (3,2). Since you go spaces to the right the first number is 3. I got 2 because you go to spcaes up. I just followed the y and x axis and found my answer.

Dear 5th grade teachers,
The coordinates for school is (3,2) because it says she moves three spaces right and she moves 2 spaces up and on the grid that shows (3,2).

Dear 5th Grade Teachers,
I did the math problem of the day. It was easy. I think the coordinate for where the school is located at is (3,2). I think it is that because the x-axis always comes first. Also because Suri went 3 sideways then 2 up. That is how I know that is the answer.

Dear Fith Grade Teachers,
I think the answer to this problem is 3,2. I know this is correct because first Marshall went three to the right on the x-axis which always comes first then two up on the y-axis which always comes second. That was way too easy. We need a better challenge, like High School math!

Dear Mrs. Garces,
I think the answer to the math problem of the day is (3,2). Do you know why? This is why: I know this because if you go 3 spaces to the right(x) and 2 spaces up(y) then you get 3,2 as your cordinate. So the schools cordinate is (3,2).

Dear Mrs.Garces,

I think the answer to the math problem of the day is (3,2) because 3 spaces to the right and 2 spaces up. When ever going on a cordinate grid you always go X then Y so side then up.

The answer for the math question is (3,2) since 2 spaces to the right is 3 and 2 up is 2.

Dear Mrs. Garces,
This does not include the math problem. I think that you should take a video of our whole grade practicing the dance for grandparents day. Okay then, Bye!

Dear 5th Grade,

I think that the answer for this math problem of the day is (3,2). I think it is that because since you start at (0,0) and go 3 to the x axis and 2 up then the answer must be (3,2).
