model addition and subtraction within 1,000 and connect each trade to a written step.
Sample problems
- Model 236+147. Write the sum and explain a trade.
- Model 383−147. Show a trade for the ones.
- Add 236+200 using a drawing.
- Subtract 100 from 383. Show which place changes.
Common mistakes to watch for
- Use a picture, objects or another calculation to check.
The answer key explains each one, so you can tell what a wrong answer means.
How to use this set
- Teach with the slides (about 15 minutes): a warm-up, the big ideas, a “spot the slip” challenge, Mr DJ’s worked example, and a pick-your-pepper round on whiteboards. Or watch the video together.
- Practice with the worksheet. Everyone does Mild and Medium, then climbs to Spicy and Extra Spicy.
- Check understanding with the exit ticket, and send the homework home.
- Mark with the answer key — each answer shows the steps and the most likely mistake. The slides’ teacher notes are in the key too.
