This tutorial is suitable for use with a screen reader. Learn how to break up numbers into pairs of smaller numbers, eg 15 = 11 + 4. Work through examples of whole number pairs and sample questions. Apply these principles to solve additions or subtractions.
Objective
1. Students use a linear model to create number pairs of numbers between 10 and 30.
2. Students establish that larger numbers can be broken up into many pairs of smaller numbers.
3. Students investigate the commutative principle.
4. Students investigate the strategy of ‘counting on’ for addition and establish that it is preferable to count on from the larger number.
