Place Value - Lending a Helpful Hand Simple Story

Place Value: Lending a Helpful Hand- A Place Value Story for Kids: Here is an original story that explains the place value concept of ones, tens and hundreds using three characters. The story describes the 'carrying over' principle in a simple storyline with bright graphics. I also included a place value mat which uses the same characters from the story. The mat can be used to introduce the concept until your kids are able to explain the process clearly. I suggest that you use craft sticks as counters initially so that your students can role play the events of the story. Nicole

Mental Math SUBTRACTION Strategies - Counting Back and Counting Up

(0)
Counting back and counting up are mental strategies that are used to subtract numbers that are close together. These mental strategies help students find the difference between numbers by counting up (on their fingers) from the smaller number to the larger number to keep track of the numbers or counting back from the larger number to larger number. The answer is the number of counts. I created this set to help introduce the strategy to students and to provide an eye catching visual reminder for them until they are able to master this mental strategy. This set includes: Counting Back Poster (colored and black n white version) Counting Up Poster (colored and black n white version) Write n Wipe Practice Cards Number line cards Ten Frame cards You might also be interested in: Counting On Addition Strategies Addition Strategies - Doubles and Doubles Plus One Addition Strategies - Making Tens and Adding Nine Mental Math SUBTRACTION Strategy - Doubles I pride myself on creating quality resources for teachers and students alike.
