This week we are learning how to add two-digit numbers that require REGROUPING.
REGROUPING is what you may have learned as “carrying”. However, in order to understand the concept, we are not simply putting a little bitty one on top of the next column. In REGROUPING, we draw out the numbers using base ten representation and circle when our ones create a “ten”. Then we can count our tens and our ones.
Check out this fantastic teaching video to understand the concept of REGROUPING:
Once you understand the process, it is time for some practice!!!
For Parents: This page gives a detailed explanation of how students learn addition, with good visuals to understand why it is taught a certain way.
