We began the day practicing our mental math multiplication skills. Then we reviewed divisibility rules from yesterday. After, we looked at newspaper articles and found that numbers are everywhere!!! We looked for exact numbers and estimates. We then had a conversation about when we would use exact numbers and when we would use estimates. We also practiced how to do long division and using the standard algorithm for multiplication.
Next, we continued practicing for our summative presentation. Our success criteria for today:
