Similar Sums

Ages 5–7 · 8 minutes · Math

Hop on the similar sums train with Kevin and Penny

In this addition lesson, students will learn that they can add the numbers of an addition problem in either order, and we'll use this to look at sums where the second number is larger, such as 2 + 9 and 6 + 14. They will use the strategies of counting on and number lines to help figure out the sums.
