Addition Strategies

We're learning several addition strategies this week.  Yesterday we learned about counting on. Students start with the bigger number and count on. I taught them how to use touch points too.  Today they learned about "doubles" and "doubles +1".  For example, if students know 6 + 6 = 12, then they should be able to quickly figure out 6 + 7 = 13.  The students love using a flipchart to practice the strategies.  They also like the "Doubles + 1" game and the dice game too.  Check out a few pictures of our math stations.
