my 1st grader is completing his homework it says write a problem for the picture and it has a picture of 2 bones and 3 dogs what kind of answer are they looking for?

I don't know but it might be something like this.

How many objects are in the picture? 3 dogs + 2 bones = 5 objects.

My child has the same type of homework and I didn't understand it at first. All it is is adding or subtracting.

fine the rule

my son has that exact question!.. its problem solving using objects.. the examples they give are.. 1-Alyssa bakes 6 cookies.. so u draw 6 cookies.. 2-Farah buys 7 pens.. draw 7 pens.. this question gets me?? WRITE A PROBLEM FOR THE PICTURE.

(picture of a bone.dog.dog.dog.bone.?

2+3= 5

u should write 3 dogs wanted bones but one of the dog wasmean so only the 2 nice dogs got the bones

2 bones + 3 dogs is 5 objects

or 2 bones - 3 dogs = -1 bones

maybe it means 5 dogs who eat the bones so 3-2 equals 1

Maybe 3 divided by two so that the two bones can be split up between the three dogs.

there were 3 dogs and only two bones oh no,what shall we do!!
