Students will the the concept of decimal multiplication by using a hundreds grid to multiply decimals. They will also be given models in which they will write the equation of the model shown.

This handout is an informational writeup for teachers or parents to help understand using models to multiply and divide fractions and decimals. I used it to send home with my students so their parents could see what we were doing in class and so they did not jump to the traditional algorithm with their kids.

This lesson is designed to help students understand the concept of dividing decimals.
