This free math tutoring video shows an important concept to understand for place value, the distributive property, and long multiplication and division. Start small and, over time, work your way up to the type of problem we did at the end. Let children figure out the pattern for themselves by using the Cuisenaire Rods to actually SEE how you are just jumping up to the next decimal place.

How Crazy Can You Make It?!? Game – Part One – Free Math Tutoring Video
The activity in this free math tutoring video comes from the Miquon math curriculum. It’s a great way for kids to consolidate their knowledge of our number system, to think critically, and expand their understanding of numbers. Encourage your kids to be as creative (or CRAZY) as possible when they do this. Creating more complex problems will develop their math skills tremendously!
This would also be a good activity to do in small groups so the children can have discussion about their ideas and learn from each other.
