Today, Jonathan learned and practiced strategies, such as using doubles and making a ten to add 2 numbers. These doubles strategies can be helpful when adding numbers that have totals between 11 and 20. We then did a hands-on activity finding totals greater than 10 using 10 index cards, 2 different colored crayons, and 19 small objects; we used pennies. Jonathan practiced doubling the numbers and adding 1. The pennies helped faciitate Jonathan's ability to visualize the problems. Through guided practice, Jonathan completed the activity and we ended the session exploring other real-life opportunities to practice finding totals greater than 10.
