Students work to improve their confidence with the using-tens and thinking-addition mental math strategies for subtraction. Students practice these strategies and practice showing their reasoning with number lines, diagrams, and number sentences. Students also apply these strategies to problems with numbers larger than ten (e.g., 45 − 7).
Content in this Lesson
