Two-Digit Addition

Our current Math focus is Addition. Students have been working on various addition problems over the past few weeks. We have worked with adding numbers and thinking of different addition strategies. We are starting to look at adding larger numbers (like two-digit addition). We know that we must add the ones side and then the tens side. We are practicing by becoming familiar with this strategy. Ask your child to explain this strategy to you.

Students are also working on solving math problems with a focus on two-digits. We are becoming familiar with the math problem solving process as well as the words to use to make an addition statement. We are also beginning to write about what our addition strategy is as well.
