Happy Veteran's Day!

I hope all of you are enjoying your Veteran's Day break. I just wanted to remind all of you about your practice sheet on decimal division. Don't forget to show your work. Also, we will have an assessment over using decimals and fractions interchangeably on Tuesday, November 16. If you would like extra practice, then copy and paste the following links into a new address bar:

Decimal Multiplication

We are working on decimal multiplication and will be assessing out of it on Tuesday, October 19. Your child will be modeling decimal multiplication and answering problems that go all the way up to 3 numbers on the bottom. Along with multiplying correctly, your child will also learn where to place a decimal. In the next couple of days I will post a powerpoint and a video on decimal multiplication; but until then, your child has a study guide to use.

Modeling Decimals

We are working on modeling multiplication of decimals and whole numbers. They have examples from the classroom to help them with this, but you can use the image above to know what the different place values look like using base ten blocks.
