When teaching my sis to multiply decimals, I often find that she forget to account for decimal place value. To help her remember to mark the decimal point, I use the decimal dance. At the chalkboard, I work out the product of the numbers. Then I simply exaggerate the motion of counting decimal places. I make a large white arc under each digit until I have accounted for the correct number of decimal places. By calling this The Decimal Dance, she remember to account for decimal place value after multiplying decimals.
Most teachers start the school year by reviewing previously learned concepts.
When introducing the concept of multiplying fractions, I use 8 brown-colored Unfix cubes to represent one chocolate bar. I offer 1/2 of the bar to a my sis. I ask her to offer 1/4 of her piece to me.Then I ask her "What fraction of the original chocolate bar did the I get" she quickly learn that a part of a part is a smaller part.
Materials Required:shoebox, chalkboard, scissors Activity Time:40 minutes Concepts Taught:side length, angles, properties of polygons Preparation:Cut out the bottom of a shoe box, to get
a cardboard box that bends at all corners .I introduce the square, rectangle, parallelogram, rhombus, and trapezoid at the chalkboard, noting the properties of each. To summarize the lesson, I hold the shoebox in front of her and say: "If you bend a rectangle like Gumby, what quadrilateral do you get?" (parallelogram). Bending the shoe box demonstrates the change in angles, and the fact the length of the sides has not changed. I then ask: "If you bend a square like Gumby, what quadrilateral do you get?" (rhombus). The whole thing sounds silly -and that is exactly why my sis remember it so well!
When I introduce my sis to range, mean, median and mode, she sometimes have trouble remembering which is which. I teach her to think of the median as the age of the middle child in a family. If there is an even number of children, then the median is the mean of the two middlemost ages.
hope this helps...
pls pls pls mark it as the brainliest....
