Addition and Subtraction Strategies
Explicitly teaching math strategies empowers students to solve problems fluently, but sometimes keeping track of the vocabulary and processes inhibits students from explaining their thinking or showing their work on paper.
These math strategy posters serve as anchors to help you teach each strategy and support student learning as they use the strategies independently. Although these were designed for printing, I highly suggest generating a similar anchor chart on chart paper with your students
