Review using column addition to add 2- and 3-digit numbers by regrouping ones
Lesson details
Learning outcome
I can use column addition including regrouping ones.
Key learning points
- When using column addition, start by adding the numbers with the smallest place value first.
- If the sum of the ones digits is ten or greater, regrouping is needed.
- Any complete tens are regrouped into the tens column.
Keywords
Column addition - Column addition is a way of adding numbers by writing a number below another.
Regroup - The process of unitising and exchanging between place values is known as regrouping.
Common misconception
Pupils may not regroup ones into the tens column.
Model regrouping from the ones to the tens. Encourage pupils to consider the size of the numbers, thinking about an approximate sum of the two addends. Is their answer reasonable?
Teacher tip
In this lesson, pupils review their understanding of regrouping in the ones when using column addition. Encourage them to approximate the sum of the two addends and use the digits to work out possible addends when given a sum (e.g. if the sum has a ones digit of 7, what could the addends be?)
