Today we launched the Multiplication and Division unit in math. Having a strong knowledge of basic multiplication and division facts will help build your child's success. Here is a suggestion for a game you can play at home: Duelling Products ·        Remove the jokers and face cards from a deck of playing cards.Use aces as 1 and tens as 0. Shuffle the cards and divide them equally between you. ·        Each player turns over 2 cards and multiplies the numbers.The player with the greater product takes all the cards. ·        If both players get the same product, leave the cards on the table.The winner of the next round takes all the cards. The winner is the player with more cards after all the cards have been turned over.                          

 I look forward to seeing all students on Wednesday!
