Mental Math Units: the Complete Addition Collection

Doubles are some of the most important facts to memorize. Fortunately, they are also often the easiest for students. Doubles occur all around us in real life, for example our fingers and toes are doubles (5 + 5), egg cartons are arranged in doubles (6 + 6), and the wheels on a vehicle are arranged in doubles (2 + 2).

When students know their doubles, they are more easily able to use mental math to calculate near doubles.

This unit includes everything you need to teach the mental math strategy of 'doubles,' including independent/partner based learning activities, a math center, whole-class kinesthetic learning activities and much more! Not only will students work with doubles equations such as 4+4 and 6+6, but they will also learn how to use the doubles strategy for addends that differ by two such as 5+7 and 2+4. Please see the free preview for a full product description.

Enjoy!

Hi there! I'm really not sure why it is doing this for some people. Please try downloading it via the link below and save it to your computer, as I will be deleting it from this link tomorrow night.

I will also be keeping all other mental math resources 20% off until tomorrow night (Monday night).

Sorry about the troubles. Let me know if you experience any other problems.

Hi Amy. I really don't know why this is happening for some people. I am going to keep it free through tomorrow just because of the problems. However, I have also uploaded it to Dropbox and will keep it there for a couple of days. Could you try downloading from there and let me know if you are able to get it?

Just copy and paste this link into your browser:

Not authorized?? That is very strange. I am going to send a ticket to TpT support. Keep trying, and let me know if you still can't get it in the next couple of hours.

I would like to know if your Mental Math Strategy Units also have practice sheets or assessment sheets for each specific mental math skill and if so, about how many are there?

Hi there! Yes, each strategy unit comes with a range of activities including independent practice sheets, partner work, games, centers, etc. I have not included a specific assessment component, but any of the practice sheets can be used as assessment. I also like to assess by observing students while they complete the math center activities. Each strategy unit is 40+ pages long. If you are thinking about purchasing them, be sure to consider purchasing as a package, rather than individually, as it will get you 6 units for the price of 5. Here is the link to the complete addition collection: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Mental-Math-Strategy-Units-the-Complete-Addition-Collection. From there you will be able to see a link to the complete subtraction collection. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Have a great day,

Shelley
