6th Grade – Factor Tree Challenge

Ask your child to find a unique string of prime numbers that can be multiplied to produce the original number and is called The Prime Factorization of a Number. You can also question them what a tree has to do with it.

  1. I was in your room during lunch one day when one of the students was working on their project. It was awesome the type of questions he was asking (“is this a prime number”), but more importantly your answers were impressive (“what strategies do you have to figure this out”). You did not give him the answer; you helped him figure it out on his own…nice!
