So Johnny has to go searching for an answer key. \u00a0If Johnny had his own answer key he could just get out his Rocket Math folder and go to work.<\/p>\n<p>3) \u00a0The Title 1 or Special Ed teacher or instructional assistant might offer to do extra practice with a student, the student takes his\/her folder down to the a place to practice&#8211;but doesn&#8217;t have an answer key.<\/p>\n<p>4) Alex moves up to division, but his partner doesn&#8217;t have an answer key to division&#8211;another example where Alex needs his own answer key.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shane asks: After the answer keys are copied onto colored paper, can\u2019t I just make enough copies of answers for half the students?
