Heavy rotary this morning (Music, Gym, and French Culture).

My daughter introduced this method of multiplying that students in Japan learn.  It is very visual and might be of benefit to students who are struggling with the approach we typically take in North America.  This approach still requires some understanding of Place Value.  I will post a link to a You Tube video so you may see what I am talking about.

It takes a few tries to really get it, but it is kind of addicting.
