Document for recording Mult and Div problems on the interactive whiteboard [|Solving Multiplication and Division problems.doc]

Teacher used interactive whiteboard to model new strategies and the properties used on the myclasses page. [|Mr_H_for_wikki.jpg]

[|Mult-Div strategies Powerpoint June 4.pps] This powerpoint was used to make the students aware that there are alternatives to using the traditional algorithm that many are still using and rely heavily on, especially when solving problems involving multiplication and division. These strategies are some of many that can be used. It was inserted into a text and image property on the myclasses page for the students to access at home to help them with problems they were to work through on a forum and explain their working out. The students were also asked to look at the powerpoint again before completing a 'vote for' on their myclasses page choosing the strategy they feel most comfortable using when multiplying mentally.

Survey for finding out strategies used. [|What Mathematical Calculations Do You Perform in a 24 Hour Period.doc]
