Math: We are going to build on what we learned last week. We are going to still
multiply 2-digit numbers by a 1-digit number but now we are going to regroup. All you
need to do is follow the steps! You will still multiply starting in the ones place then
move to the tens place. Get out two different colors or colored pencils.
