We use a place value chart with place value disks to solve addition and subtraction. This structure gives you a chance to have both strategies on the same page. There are empty structures for you to copy for your class, with a sample of an addition problem and a subtraction problem.

This 2 page resource has the strategies the are introduced in Module 4 (except the Totals Below) for addition and subtraction. Over the years we have improved this and print it 2 on a page and create a table resource for the students to use.

This game has students working with even and odd 1 and 2 digit numbers. They pick a card, and move the number that fits what the direction says - "move to the next odd number". The game board comes in color as well in black and white for a printer friendly option. There are different level of questions on the cards, from just moving the the next even/odd number, to finding the largest or smallest even/odd number and finding and even/odd number with a specific digit in the tens or ones place.

This products contains 10 sets of 4 cards that represent a multiplication problem in different ways focusing on the Distributive Property of Multiplication: 2 sets of arrays and 2 different multiplication problems. You can use the cards in a variety ways - Go FIsh, Concentration, matching and more. This set of cards focuses on 6, 7 8 & 9. I will be adding a set of cars with teen numbers, at which time the price will increase. Get it now before the increase, and still get the new cards!!

This is a resource with the focus on problem solving and NOT Key words. I created this as a way to help my students learn how to approach word problems, and really understand them!

This is a resource for the "Take a Ten", and "Make a Ten" strategy for adding/ subtracting a 1 digit number to/from a 2 digit number.
