Step 1: Focus on Ones
Always add the Ones column first. If the sum is 10 or greater, carry the 1 up to the Tens box!
T O

+8
35
Model: 7 + 8 = 15.
Write 5 in ones, carry 1 to tens.
1 + 2 = 3 tens.
A Warm-Up Facts (Use dots or count on)
Touch or draw dots if helpful
6 + 5 =
8 + 4 =
7 + 6 =
9 + 7 =
B 2-Digit Addition with Regrouping (Carrying)

⭐ Subtraction Rule: "More on the floor? Go next door and borrow 10 more!"
Regrouping Steps
Cross out the Tens digit, decrease it by 1. Give 10 to the Ones digit so it has enough to subtract!

Model: 2 is smaller than 7.
Borrow 1 ten from 4 (becomes 3).
2 becomes 12. 12 − 7 = 5.
3 − 1 = 2 tens.
A Warm-Up Differences (Count back or cross out)
Use mental math or fingers
11 count back 4
11 − 4 =
14 count back 6
14 − 6 =
13 count back 5
13 − 5 =
16 count back 8
16 − 8 =

What is Multiplication?
Multiplication is fast repeated addition of equal groups.
4 groups of 3
3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12
4 × 3 = 12
