Lattice Multiplication in Ocean County Schools-Sue’s Mommy Blog

For the first five years I had a Mommy Blog about my daughter Abby’s life and what it was like for me as a first time Mommy.  Now she’s a 10 year old Diva and I’ve decided to bring back the Mommy blog. Her life and what she does is just so funny, it’s too funny not to talk about or write about!  It’s time to share our adventures with you again.  Wow, I can't believe she's 10 already.  Time flies.

What is this Math?  It's called the "lattice multiplication" and somehow she got this answer with that?

I say, "Abs..what is this"?  She said, "It's easy multiplication".  "OK"..Am I the only Mom that doesn't get this?  Somehow she had the right answer because I used the fantastic, little machine called the calculator.

Do you get the lattice multiplication?  Did you ever see this?
