Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. When adding three addends, it is efficient to first add two addends using a known fact e.g. pair to 10 or double.
  2. When adding, we can bridge 10 by partitioning a part so that we can ‘make 10’.
  3. When subtracting, we can bridge 10 by partitioning a part to create a part that is equal to the ones digit of whole.
  4. The difference can be found through subtraction.

Common misconception
