Decimal Multiplication Hundredths

Module 10, Lesson 4

Differentiation Activity
5.NBT.7

Students generate 3 digits between 1-9 to create multiplication expressions. To generate digits, students can use playing cards (A-9) or virtual dice. (To make it easier, share the link to the digital dice with students using Google Classroom.)

Once they have their digits, students create three different expressions. Expressions must be a whole number x a hundredth.  For example, if a student has the digits 3, 2, and 4 they can create: 3 x .24, 2 x .34, or 4 x .23. Students calculate the products for each f their expressions and compare with a partner.
