💢For notes 📝:
✅Word roots are the basic parts of meaning in words and are often derived from Greek and Latin.
✅They can sometimes stand on their own, but their meaning changes when combined with prefixes and suffixes.
✅Learning the meaning of different word roots will help you make educated guesses about the meaning of unfamiliar words, and you'll begin to see commonalities among words that share the same root.
🔰Some common word roots are:
🔅-geo: earth
e.g.: geology
🔅-photo: light

✖️Multiplication Strategies ✖️
🔷Discover effective ways to mentally solve multiplication problems ✔️
🔷Multiplying complex numbers can seem intimidating 🛑
But breaking them down into easier parts, you can solve even the most difficult problems ☑️
🔶Learn to solve the following problem by breaking it into several parts:
1️⃣ Step 1. Break the problem into easier parts:
20 x 6 = ?
20 x 10 = ?
4 x 10 = ?
4 x 6 = ?
2️⃣ Step 2. Solve each part:
20 x 10 = 200
20 x 6 = 120
4 x 10 = 40
4 x 6 = 24
3️⃣ Step 3. Add each product to get the answer:
200 + 120 + 40 + 24 = 384 is the answer.
✅Tips📝:
🔆To break harder multiplication problems into easier ones, look for ways to multiply by numbers with a 0 at the end or by reducing other numbers to easier multiples.
🔅For example, to calculate 35 x 8, you can break it into any of the following:
🔹 30 x 8 + 5 x 8 = 240 + 40 = 280
🔹 35 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 70 x 2 x 2 = 140 x 2 = 280
🔹 20 x 8 + 10 x 8 + 5 x 8 = 160 + 80 + 40 = 280
🔹 10 x 8 + 10 x 8 + 10 x 8 + 5 x 8 = 80 + 80 + 80 + 40 = 280
♻️We will return to this exercise to work through other multiplication problems, these practices are referred not only to teach maths, but so "math" vocabulary for English learners 👍👍👍
