3. 1 st Grade Expectations Master a number of different addition/subtraction strategies. Choose the strategies that work best for him/her and for the particular problem. Be flexible with strategies and choose ones that are efficient. Check work with another strategy.

4. Full Model Prompt: How can you use a picture to solve this problem? Drawing all for addition Counting objects, counting on fingers, drawing a picture Crossing off for subtraction Taking away objects, taking away fingers, crossing off in a picture

5. Counting On/Counting Back Prompt: How can you use a number line and/or counting to solve this problem? Adding and subtracting are like counting up and back Start with the larger number and count on or back (“hop”/”jump” forward or back) Efficient strategy for solving single-digit addition and subtraction problems Show your work with a number line or drawing Examples: 3 + 8 = ___8 – 2 = ___

6. Using Facts We Know (Fluency) Prompt: How can you use facts you know to solve this problem? Combinations of 10 6 + 3 + 4 = ____I know 6 + 4 = 10 and 10 + 3 = 13 Doubles and Near Doubles 8 + 7 = _____I know 7 + 7 = 14, so one more is 15 Fact Families – using what we know about addition to help with subtraction 10 – 7 = ____I know 7 + 3 = 10, so 10 – 7 = 3

7. Keep One/Break One Prompt: How can you break a number into helpful parts to solve this problem? Break one number into two parts so that you can make a landmark number (e.g., 10 or a multiple of 10) 9 + 7 = ____ 18 – 9 = ____ 36 + 8 = ____

8. Using Place Value Prompt: How can you use what you know about 10s and 1s to solve this problem? 36 + 22 = ____ Base 10 Model: Using or drawing base 10 blocks Expanded Form: Breaking numbers into 10s &1s 30 + 6 20 + 2 50 + 8 = 58 Keep One/Break One: Adding multiples of 10 first 36 + 20 = 56 56 + 2 = 58
