Help your student become a(n) Problem Solver +/- (Adding/Subtracting)
These activities challenge children to solve all the addition and including some multidigit problems. Children continue to build and use sophisticated strategies, and can discuss the relationship between problems and operations. For example, for a Separate, start unknown, problem such as "You had some candies, and you gave your friend 8 , now you have 5. How many did you have to start with?" a child might say, "It is like a subtraction problem, but you don't know the whole, so you got to add 8 and 5."
