My first video dealt with dividing numbers ending with zero, such as 30, 40, 50 etc. See part A below. I will now show you how to divide numbers that do not end in zero. This is the math trick that we use in class to try and beat the calculator. It really gets kids interested in some math and it’s great to do when there is only a few minutes left in class. I believe in not wasting a minute of instructional time. My MathCounts team uses this mathematics trick to sharpen their wits and warm up before we tackle the harder problems in practice. I’m also happy to say that my MathCounts team took first place in our region and also finished in the top half at the state competition. Great job. I’m very proud of them for all their hard word.

Nice Kevin! After initial instruction I can see how kids would return to these videos when they get stuck, are doing homework, etc. It’s a nice simple interface, nice to see information form on the screen as you are talking, versus static slide with voiceover.

Thanks Jane,
ScreenFlow makes it easy to record notes and such, and it it pretty easy to use. I also use Screencast to hold some longer videos that I will post shortly.
