Math:  

Today we learned the procedure and a few models for adding and subtracting decimals...ask your students to show you the hand motions for =/- with decimals:
1. When I  + or - decimals,
2. I line up the decimals,
3. And, add any insignificant 0s that I need.
4. Finally, I add using the standard procedure.
