Production on set of our Math Movie Network has kicked into gear. Students have been hard at work preparing for our first video shoot by learning how to add, subtract, and multiply decimals.

We learned that when adding or subtracting decimals, the decimal points always need to line up. When we multiply decimals, the decimal points don’t need to line up.




A few of our very talented news anchors put together a couple videos to share how to add, subtract, and multiply decimals. Pay very close attention to the difference in how we handle decimals in addition and subtraction problems as compared to a multiplication problem.




Excellent job everyone! Tune in as we continue to create videos as part of the Math Movie Network!
