year two

It's year two.. I've just finished grading the second unit exam I've given to my 8th graders. (Millions of fingers are pointing at me, voices are chanting "meaning! there is meaning to your life!!"- why? I gave up on math in 8th grade; hated it in fact).

Anyway, my students understand everything there is to know about integers. Yet the fact remains- there are errors aplenty when it comes to their basic arithmetic. Why is it so hard to right this wrong? arrrrrgh.
