This puzzle is about a sum table that I need to complete. I need to make sure all the rows and columns have the same sum. The table has five columns and five rows. The first row is filled in with the numbers 8,4,6,5 and 7, from left to right. The far right column is filled in with the numbers 7,5,6,8,and 4 downward. The only numbers I can use to complete the table are the digits 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8. I cannot repeat the same number in the same row or the same column.

Writing Task: Students need to complete the U.S. Landmark worksheet pages attached to the homework packet.
