November 12

Today we had a travel through time.  This afternoon we saw a timeline from 40000 BCE to 2015 CE on a long and thin piece of paper. This morning we did some problem solving then we did some writing. After lunch we did theme, that is when we did the travel through time activity now we are going to gym.
Black Table

In math we looked at a new way to look at multiplication.  The students were given an equation and the answer.  They then had to prove it.  The method for proving the equation is shown in a post from last November 28th.  I have challenged the students to prove the equation 62x84=5208 five ways by the end of their long weekend.  There will be prizes!

I've included an example - only 4 more ways needed! (If you checked the Blog)
