Today we learned a new addition strategy. We learned how to use a number line to add numbers. After reading the addition sentence, you start on the first number then jump the number of spaces that the next number tells you. The answer is the number you land on. Other strategies we have learned so far are counting on, using a ten frame, and drawing a picture. We learn the strategy as a whole class but then can choose the strategy that works best for each of us when doing our work independently.
