How to add, addition problems


The first tip for solving addition problems is to teasch learners to "count on" counting on works by having the learnercount on from the biggest number or the largest added in an addition problem. For example, in the 6+4 the learner counts up from six(6) aloud by saying sssixxx..... and then "7, 8, 9, 10" The learner can use their figers, toes, or ?

          Touch points to help see that they have counted up free places. Touch points are basically points on a number that learner can use to "count on " with, for example, the number 4 has four easy to distinguish touch points. So for a problem like 6+4 they say six aloud then counts on by touching the four points of the number 4while seven, eight, night, ten.
