Dividing decimals by decimals has started out well for one of the first times in my career. ⁠
⁠
What's different? This year I feel that my students really started this unit with a strong foundation of multiplying decimals by powers of 10. ⁠
⁠
Instead of just saying, "move the decimal point in your divisor to make it a whole number", we discuss increasing the divisor by powers of ten until it is a whole number, and then increasing the dividend by the same power of 10.⁠
⁠
My students are successfully setting up their decimal division problems and truly understanding what it means to "move the decimal point".⁠
⁠
What's the biggest challenge you have with teaching decimal division?⁠

If you haven’t been to the @costco book section - you are missing out! They have soooo many great reading series for all levels and these were the 3 I walked out with. Honestly...I was tempted to buy more but had to reel it in.⠀

Does anybody else shop for classroom books at Costco?⠀

Need a quick and easy Thanksgiving Math activity? I've got you covered. ⁠
⁠
This Thanksgiving Menu Math is a great low prep resource that will allow your students to review adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing decimals. ⁠
⁠
I've used this activity for past observations so it provides you with an introduction activity leading into the main project. It even includes some fun realistic receipts that you can use with your students for extra practice or as quick checks (psssst - there's a free sample receipt in the preview file on the last page! 😉)⁠

We’ve been working on multiplying decimals for about a week so I wanted to see if my students could apply it to some real world scenarios. ⠀
⠀
@teachingwithamountainview ‘s Multiplying and Dividing Decimals Project is perfect for this. I printed out the store fronts and laminated so they felt like they were using menus so the kids got excited. ⠀
⠀
The best part is that this provided a heathy challenge that allowed my students to think more critically and problem solve. ⠀
