This week, we are beginning multiplying fractions.
The good news: multiplying fractions is actually easier than adding them!
However, fractions will continue to appear throughout our work, so we will keep practicing to build confidence and mastery.
Looking ahead, students will need strong skills in:
Multiplication facts
Fraction operations
Decimal operations
These foundations are essential for success in 6th and 7th grade math, so we’re taking the time now to ensure students are solid and secure in their understanding.
