Click the link to watch a tutorial on  Multi-Digit Multiplication Strategies that will be used in class.   This is a great way to understand how to help your child extend what they know about basic multiplicaiton and begin to understand how strategies work.  Students should be using strategies that make sense to them and should not be guided to the standard algorithm too soon.  This video is so helpful in supporting you as parents with encouraging your child to make sense and use strategies different from how you learned in your elementary days.  Go with what they know!  

Hands on Learning and Teamwork are the foundation of our classroom.  Check out some of the work we have been doing!
