What We've Been Doing During December

Our class is off to a great start learning how to solve double digit multiplication problems. We started the topic by meeting DDM (Double Digit Multiplication ) Man, who showed the steps to multiply by "flying" up and diagonally on the whiteboard...

One of the hands-on activities we did to practice double digit multiplication was playing "Double Digit Multiplication Match". Students had to solve double digit multiplication problems to be able to match mittens...

Another one was rolling dice to create a set of double digits numbers which we multiplied...

During our "Machines, Forces, and Energy" science unit we learned about simple machines, force and friction, potential and kinetic energy, electricity, light, and sound. Students had a hair raising time conducting static electricity experiments, including experimenting if sugar, salt, or coffee grinds would be the most attracted to static electricity...

  Happy learning!
