If you're looking for an easy way to get the weekly challenge, Today is a good day to do. If you haven't got it, you've only got today & tomorrow so I'd suggest today, just in case tomorrow is evil.
Light Fare - Kill 100 enemies in any game mode in Reach - 1000cR
A nice simple challenge. Any game mode so it's a nice day to just get on with the Multiplayer challenges and finish off if you need, with a bit of Firefight, be it custom or matchmaking.
Up Close and Personal - Kill 3 enemies with close quarters combat in a multiplayer Matchmaking game - 1000cR
Close Talking - Earn 40 kills with close quarters combat in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1300cR
Same tactics for both of these. Gametypes where it's practically exclusive Close combat weapons are Living Dead (Pistol the odd one out), Shotgun Assault and Grifball. Grifball is where I'd place everything today. If you want to mix it up a bit, Shotgun, Hammer, Sword and Melee kills are the ways you can go.
Credits for Completion - Complete 6 games in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1300cR
Just sit, play and stay. Also, Don't AFK.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 08/07/2011
Hope you enjoyed your Reach experience yesterday. Anyone here win any Steak?
Blastin’ and Relaxin’ – Kill 180 enemies in any game mode in Reach – 1350cR
Fastest way is for you to enter Firefight, be it custom or Match made. Though there are a few Multiplayer challenges today, so you might be able to whittle down the amount you need to kill.
A Great Friend – Earn 30 assists today in multiplayer Matchmaking – 2250cR
A rather large amount, don't think we've had one this big before today. Either way, it still stands with me that Invasion is the best way to get this. Plasma Pistols or Melees for shield popping, then your friend can finish them off with a quick shot to the head, or another punch. May take some time this one.
Fourth Horseman – Earn 4 multikills in a multiplayer Matchmaking game – 2000cR
A double is worth 1, a Triple Kill on top of that is worth another one. So always push for that extra kill. One hit kill weapons (power weapons) such as Shotgun, Sword, Hammer, Rockets, Sniper and lots of grenades will work nicely. Gametypes that work well are Living Dead, Multi-Team and Grifball. Chaos and weakened enemies always works well.
Sticky Icky Icky – Earn 4 sticky grenade kills in a multiplayer Matchmaking game – 1300cR
Again I'd say Elite slayer or Invasion. Always good to have a steady supply of Blue balls.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 07/07/2011
Happy Bungie Day. How many of you are attempting to get a Steak today?
Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking - 1100cR
Simple and easy stuff. A game of Scoreattack x2 will get you it in one and the extra Elites it drops off will help with other challenges.
On the Sixth Respawn... - Complete a Firefight Matchmaking game with fewer than 5 deaths - 2000cR
Just play it smart. Most enemies use close range weapons. Plasma Pistols, Needlers, Spikers. The only weapons that pose a threat at range are the Needle Rifle and Focus Rifle, with a splattering of Fuel Rod every once in a while. So take a DMR and fight at range.
Demon - Kill 40 Elites in Firefight Matchmaking - 1400cR
A couple of Scoreattack x2 games will work nicely here.
Flat Tire - Kill 10 enemy vehicles in Firefight Matchmaking - 1125cR
Of all the challenges there have been, there are challenges that take longer and are more challenging, but none have ever felt like such a grind, like this one. The vehicles are only moderately predictable. Holdout has a Banshee you can blow up but other large maps such as Outlook & Beachhead with get a vehicle to blow up every blue moon. Other maps barely get any. They are more common in Firefight but you've also got a 1/4 of the chance of blowing it up. If you can grab some friends, this challenge will go by much better.
I have been told by Shannon that if you can get Sniperattack on Hold out, it only takes 2/3 shots to take down a Banshee and also adds to my earlier assumptions that they are set on a timer. So the longer the game, the more Banshees.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 06/07/2011
One more day till Bungie Day. I hope you'll all be attempting to get a Steak from the Bungie Guys, I know I will be.
Fire When Ready - Kill 50 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1500cR
All you need to do is kill in Matchmaking. I'm certain you don't need help in that respect. Good gametypes are Multi-Team, Grifball and a whole bunch of stuff in Action Sack.
Be Their Huckleberry - Kill 50 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking with the pistol - 1000cR
Just had this one, I sure of it. Anyway. Gruntpocolypse gives you a pistol and Grunts. Stick by a supply crate to replenish ammo and you're good to go.
Pod Kettle Black - Kill 10 Elite Drop Pods in The Long Night of Solace - 1000cR
Bit of an odd one but still easy. On Long Night, Start from Rally Point Alpha and fight your way through the first waves of enemies. Now when you come up to the Corvette, you'll notice that, from the bottom of the ship, Blue projectiles are launched. These are Drop pods. The easiest way to kill them is to follow their trajectory from right behind them and use the Machine gun to destroy them. They usually release 3 at a time from each area where they go from so it shouldn't be too hard.
You Want This, Don't You? - Earn 10 kills with precision weapons in a multiplayer Matchmaking game - 1250cR
SWAT, Snipers and invasion give you many ways to get this challenge. SWAT Objective & Invasion give you all the time you need if you're falling short in regular slayer games.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 05/07/2011
One Spartan Army - Kill 400 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking - 2000cR
3-4 games of Firefight/Scoreattack should give you everything you need. Just focus on the killing you'll be fine. Not really much else I can say.
The T.G. Opposition - Kill 40 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking with the Shotgun - 1450cR
Grunts, Brutes and most Jackals are where the Shotgun will be most effective. That's not to say it's not effective against Skirmishers or Elites but they'll take a bit more to kill.
Clip It. Share It. - Make a clip from your Local files and upload it to your File Share - 1250cR
Load a clip up, record, auto name and save, exit, hover over new clip, press x, upload to file share. Done.
Un, Deux, Trois - Win 3 games in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1450cR
Win 3 games. Not much else here, not much else to elaborate on.
