MathAsALanguage

This lesson goes along with my math rap #MathAsALanguage to help students look for key words that may signal the use of certain operations, equation, or inequality symbols. It is designed to help out with being able to write equations and inequalities from word problems, and to take out the guess work of what a problem is asking for by understanding the terminology!

This assignment is an easy transition from multiplying fractions to multiplying decimals. It uses tenths grids to show why when you multiply tenths together, the answer is hundredths. This is a digital resource that can be uploaded into Schoology as a assignment.
