Add in Any Order
Lesson Outline
Today, Teddy continued to work on determining the unknown in addition equations using number lines to help find missing addends. Then, we reviewed the friends of ten using tens frames and counters to model the different ways. Finally, our lesson focused on adding in any order, and that the order of addends can change, but the sums stay the same. Teddy completed the lesson's practice problems and spiral review questions.
