Placing the Decimal Multiplication Scoot
Quickly practice or review placing decimals using standard algorithm! Students are given products and have to scoot from desk to desk to figure out where to put the decimal. On the desks they'll read an equation, count the places past the decimal and place it correctly in the product.
Students LOVE scoot, I always play it with music. Dance when the music is on, scoot to a desk when the music is off!

Additional biographical information
The name "Stuff and Things," is a tribute to my first 5th grade class. We discussed the need to be more descriptive and avoid saying 'stuff and things' in our writing and speaking and then it became our inside joke. So, since my creations do not fit nicely into one box, they are stuff and things.
I currently teach K-8 STEM, allowing me a great big swath of creative freedom. I've taught middle school science, 5th grade and 2nd grade. I started on TPT when we all only gave each other free resources and I loved the genuine sharing for our students benefits. Message me if price is an issue (it does add up!) and your school will not reimburse.
