I guess that's my point, that the teacher is not having the students complete the equation.
Maybe this is just the first step, and she will introduce the second step (adding the 2 x 6 = 12 to 360) tomorrow.
I just hated to see her write 360 as the answer to 62 x 6, when she is quite capable of figuring out the correct answer. I understand your points about breaking the problem down into more workable chunks. I'll follow up on how the lesson progresses.
