You will be ushered in at the beginning of our act and then out as soon as it is over. It will be this Friday, June 8th, beginning at 1:15, I do not at this time know the order. Thanks!

Multiplication and Division of Decimals

The last couple of weeks we've been  working on multiplying decimals. Here is a video that was really well done, where  the teacher does a great job of explaining a brilliant way to model concretely how to multiply decimals. 

Here is the link to that video.  Watch it, it might blow your mind the way it does ours! 


Here are some pictures of us practicing modeling the multiplication of decimals.




















This week we learned how to divide decimals using a representation of base-ten blocks. Here is the anchor chart the students can use as a reference.
