Okay, here are the resources for teaching fluent addition and subtraction within 100 to a 6th-grade student, focusing on place value, properties of operations, and the addition/subtraction relationship.
1. Lesson Plan
Subject: Mathematics
Grade Level: 6th Grade (Can be adapted for 5th or advanced 4th)
Time Allotment: 60 minutes
Objective: Students will be able to fluently add and subtract within 100 using strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.
Materials:
Whiteboard or projector
Markers or pens
Number lines (individual or large display)
Optional: Base-ten blocks
Worksheet with practice problems (can use quiz questions for practice)
Pencils
Slideshow (provided below)
Quiz (provided below)
Procedure:
(5 min) Introduction & Warm-up:
Engage: Start with a quick mental math warm-up. Ask: "What is 30 + 40? How did you figure that out?" (Likely uses place value). Ask: "What is 15 + 9 + 5? How did you solve it?" (Might use making tens/properties).
State Objective: "Today, we're going to become math detectives! Our mission is to find the smartest and quickest ways to add and subtract numbers up to 100. We'll learn strategies using place value, special math rules called properties, and how addition and subtraction are related, like a family."
(25 min) Instruction & Guided Practice (Using Slideshow):
Review Place Value: (Slides 3-5)
Remind students about tens and ones. Use base-ten blocks or drawings if helpful.
Strategy: Break apart numbers into tens and ones. Add/subtract the tens, add/subtract the ones, then combine.
Guided Example (Addition): 58 + 34. (50+30) + (8+4) = 80 + 12 = 92. Discuss regrouping (12 ones is 1 ten and 2 ones).
Guided Example (Subtraction): 72 - 25. Think (70-20) + (2-5). Problem! Can't do 2-5. Regroup: Take 1 ten from 70, make it 60. Add that ten to the ones: 12. Now (60-20) + (12-5) = 40 + 7 = 47.
Properties of Operations (Focus on Addition): (Slides 6-7)
Strategy (Commutative): Remind them that order doesn't matter in addition (a+b = b+a). Example: 19 + 67 is the same as 67 + 19 (often easier to start with the larger number).
Strategy (Associative): Remind them that grouping doesn't matter in addition ((a+b)+c = a+(b+c)). Focus on "making tens." Example: 25 + 18 + 5 = (25+5) + 18 = 30 + 18 = 48.
Relationship Between Addition & Subtraction: (Slides 8-10)
Strategy (Fact Families): Review fact families (e.g., 40+30=70, 30+40=70, 70-40=30, 70-30=40).
Strategy (Think Addition for Subtraction/Missing Addend): Frame subtraction as finding a missing part. Example: 85 - 37 = ?. Think: 37 + ? = 85.
Strategy (Counting Up): Use a number line (mental or physical). For 85 - 37: Start at 37. Jump to 40 (+3). Jump to 80 (+40). Jump to 85 (+5). Total jump: 3 + 40 + 5 = 48. So, 85 - 37 = 48.
Guided Practice: Work through one subtraction problem using "counting up."
(15 min) Independent Practice:
Provide a worksheet or select problems from the quiz for students to solve independently.
Circulate and observe which strategies students are using. Offer prompts: "Could you break that down by place value?" "Is there a 'friendly number' you could make first?" "How could you think of that subtraction problem using addition?"
(10 min) Assessment & Quiz:
Administer the 20-question quiz.
(5 min) Closure & Review:
Briefly review the main strategies: Place Value (break apart), Properties (reorder, make tens), Addition/Subtraction Connection (fact families, count up).
Ask: "Which strategy do you find most helpful for addition? For subtraction? Why?"
Reinforce that the goal is fluency, which means being able to choose the best strategy for the problem and solve it accurately and efficiently.
Differentiation:
Support: Provide more visual aids (number lines, base-ten blocks), focus on smaller numbers first (within 50), allow use of manipulatives during practice/quiz, work in a small group.
Challenge: Ask students to solve problems using two different strategies and explain which they preferred, introduce problems with three addends, pose word problems requiring addition/subtraction within 100.
2. Lecture (Approx. 1000 words)
(Start with enthusiasm!)
Hello! Today, we're going on an adventure into the world of numbers, specifically adding and subtracting numbers up to 100. Now, you probably already know how to add and subtract, right? You learned that a while ago. But our goal today is something called fluency. Think about someone who is fluent in a language – they don't just know words; they can speak smoothly, understand easily, and choose the right words without thinking too hard. Math fluency is similar! It means not just getting the right answer, but getting it efficiently, understanding why it's right, and being able to choose the best tool, or strategy, for the job.
Why do we need strategies? Imagine you have a toolbox. You wouldn't use a hammer to screw in a screw, right? You'd use a screwdriver! Math is the same. Sometimes, one way of solving a problem is much easier or faster than another way. Learning different strategies gives you a full math toolbox, so you can pick the perfect tool for any addition or subtraction problem within 100. Today, we'll focus on three main types of tools: using Place Value, using Properties of Operations, and using the close relationship between Addition and Subtraction.
Strategy 1: Place Value Power!
This is probably a strategy you've used before, maybe without even naming it. Everything in our number system is built on place value – the idea that a digit's value depends on its position. The number 73 isn't just a 7 and a 3; it's 7 tens (which is 70) and 3 ones (which is 3). This is super powerful for adding and subtracting.
Let's try adding 45 + 32. Using place value, we can break these numbers apart:
45 is 4 tens (40) and 5 ones (5).
32 is 3 tens (30) and 2 ones (2).
Now, we can add the parts that are alike:
Add the tens: 40 + 30 = 70
Add the ones: 5 + 2 = 7
Combine the results: 70 + 7 = 77.
So, 45 + 32 = 77. See how we kept the tens together and the ones together? It makes the addition simpler because we're often dealing with easier numbers like multiples of ten.
Subtraction works similarly. Let's try 68 - 25.
68 is 6 tens (60) and 8 ones (8).
25 is 2 tens (20) and 5 ones (5).
Subtract the like parts:
Subtract the tens: 60 - 20 = 40
Subtract the ones: 8 - 5 = 3
Combine the results: 40 + 3 = 43.
So, 68 - 25 = 43.
But what happens when subtraction gets tricky? Like 52 - 18?
52 is 5 tens (50) and 2 ones (2).
18 is 1 ten (10) and 8 ones (8).
If we try to subtract the ones (2 - 8), we run into a problem! We don't have enough ones. This is where regrouping (sometimes called borrowing) comes in, and it's all about place value. We need more ones, and we have extra tens. So, we take one of the tens from the 50. That leaves 4 tens (40). That ten we took is worth 10 ones. We add those 10 ones to the 2 ones we already had. 10 + 2 = 12 ones.
So, 52 is the same as 4 tens and 12 ones. Now we can subtract!
Subtract the tens: 40 - 10 = 30
Subtract the ones: 12 - 8 = 4
Combine: 30 + 4 = 34.
So, 52 - 18 = 34. Breaking numbers down by place value helps us see exactly what's happening when we add and subtract, especially when regrouping is needed.
Strategy 2: Using Math's Special Rules (Properties of Operations)
Math has some rules that are always true, called properties. For addition, two are especially helpful for making calculations easier.
Commutative Property (Order Property): This fancy name just means that you can swap the order of numbers when you add, and the answer stays the same. Think: a + b = b + a. For example, 7 + 15 is the same as 15 + 7. Why is this useful? Sometimes it's easier to start with the bigger number. If you have 18 + 75, you could count on from 18, but it might be faster to think of it as 75 + 18. You start closer to the answer!
Associative Property (Grouping Property): This means that if you're adding three or more numbers, you can group them differently without changing the sum. Think: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c). The most common way we use this is to make tens. Tens are friendly numbers, easy to work with. Look at this problem: 35 + 17 + 5.
Instead of just going left to right (35+17 = 52, then 52+5 = 57), look for numbers that make a ten! Notice the 35 ends in 5, and there's another 5. Let's group those together using the associative property:
35 + 17 + 5 = (35 + 5) + 17
Now it's easier: 40 + 17 = 57. Much quicker, right? Always scan addition problems to see if you can make a ten!
Important note: These properties (commutative and associative) as we've discussed them are specifically for addition. You can't just swap numbers in subtraction (10 - 5 is not the same as 5 - 10) or regroup them freely. However, understanding these addition properties helps you be more flexible when adding, which can sometimes be part of a subtraction process (like checking your answer).
Strategy 3: The Addition & Subtraction Connection
Addition and subtraction are opposites, like partners in solving problems. They are related through fact families. If you know one fact, you actually know four! For example, if you know:
25 + 50 = 75
Then you also know:50 + 25 = 75 (Commutative property!)
75 - 25 = 50
75 - 50 = 25
How does this help? It lets us turn subtraction problems into addition problems, which some people find easier.
Let's say you need to solve 90 - 63. You can think of this as: "63 plus what equals 90?" or 63 + ? = 90. This "missing addend" approach can be very powerful, especially when combined with a number line or mental counting.
This leads to the Counting Up strategy for subtraction. Instead of starting at 90 and taking away 63 (which might involve regrouping), start at the smaller number (63) and count up to the bigger number (90), keeping track of your jumps.
Start at 63. Let's jump to the next friendly ten, which is 70. That's a jump of +7. (63 + 7 = 70)
Now we're at 70. We need to get to 90. That's an easy jump of +20. (70 + 20 = 90)
We made it! How big were our jumps? We jumped +7 and +20.
Add the jumps: 7 + 20 = 27.
So, the difference between 63 and 90 is 27. That means 90 - 63 = 27.
This "counting up" method avoids regrouping in subtraction entirely! It's fantastic for problems like 71 - 38 or 53 - 29 where traditional subtraction might require borrowing across place values.
Putting It All Together: Fluency
So, we have these amazing tools: Place Value (breaking apart), Properties (reordering, making tens), and the Addition/Subtraction Connection (fact families, thinking addition, counting up). The goal isn't to always use one specific strategy. The goal is fluency – looking at a problem like 50 + 19 and thinking, "Easy, 50+10 is 60, plus 9 is 69" (Place Value). Or seeing 28 + 35 + 2 and thinking, "Ah! (28+2) + 35 = 30 + 35 = 65" (Properties). Or seeing 82 - 45 and thinking, "Okay, 45 + ? = 82. 45 to 50 is 5, 50 to 80 is 30, 80 to 82 is 2. So, 5 + 30 + 2 = 37." (Counting Up).
Practice using these strategies. Pay attention to the numbers in the problem. Soon, you'll naturally start picking the best strategy for each situation, and you'll be adding and subtracting within 100 accurately, efficiently, and confidently. You'll be a fluent math detective!
3. Example Texts Illustrating Strategies
Here is one example text for each strategy type:
1. Example Text: Place Value Strategy
Problem: Maya has 56 stickers. Her friend gives her 27 more. How many stickers does Maya have now?
Solving using Place Value:
"To solve 56 + 27, let's break both numbers into tens and ones.
56 is 5 tens (50) and 6 ones (6).
27 is 2 tens (20) and 7 ones (7).
First, add the tens: 50 + 20 = 70.
Next, add the ones: 6 + 7 = 13.
Now, combine the results: 70 + 13.
Wait, 13 ones is the same as 1 ten and 3 ones. So, we have 70 + 10 + 3.
That makes 80 + 3 = 83.
Maya has 83 stickers."
2. Example Text: Properties of Operations Strategy
Problem: Leo is collecting cans for recycling. He collected 42 cans on Monday, 19 cans on Tuesday, and 8 cans on Wednesday. How many cans did he collect in total?
Solving using Properties (Associative - Making Tens):
"We need to add 42 + 19 + 8.
I could just add 42 + 19 first, but look at the numbers! 42 ends in a 2, and there's an 8. I know 2 + 8 = 10. That will make things easier!
The Associative Property says I can change the grouping. Instead of (42 + 19) + 8, I can do 42 + (19 + 8). Hmm, that doesn't help much.
Let's use the Commutative Property too, to reorder: 42 + 8 + 19.
NOW use the Associative Property: (42 + 8) + 19.
First, calculate 42 + 8. That's 50.
Now the problem is just 50 + 19.
That's easy! 50 + 10 is 60, plus 9 is 69.
Leo collected 69 cans."
3. Example Text: Relationship between Addition and Subtraction Strategy
Problem: A baker made 71 cookies. He sold 48 of them. How many cookies does he have left?
Solving using the Addition/Subtraction Relationship (Counting Up):
"We need to solve 71 - 48.
Instead of subtracting, let's think of it as addition: 48 + ? = 71. How far is it from 48 up to 71? Let's count up.
Start at 48.
Jump to the next friendly number, 50. That's a jump of +2. (Now we're at 50).
From 50, jump to 70. That's a jump of +20. (Now we're at 70).
From 70, jump to 71. That's a jump of +1. (Now we're at 71).
We made it! Now add up our jumps: 2 + 20 + 1 = 23.
So, the difference is 23.
The baker has 23 cookies left. We found 71 - 48 by thinking 48 + 23 = 71."

(Slide 1: Title Slide)
Visual: Title "Math Detectives: Super Strategies for Adding & Subtracting within 100!" with magnifying glass/detective graphics.
Speaker Notes: "Welcome, Math Detective! Today, our mission is to become super fluent – that means fast, accurate, and smart – at adding and subtracting numbers up to 100. We'll learn some awesome strategies to make it easier!"
(Slide 2: Objective)
Visual: Bullet points:
Add and subtract numbers within 100 fluently.
Use strategies based on Place Value.
Use strategies based on Properties of Operations.
Use strategies based on the Addition/Subtraction relationship.
Speaker Notes: "Here's our goal today. We want to be able to solve problems like 67 + 25 or 82 - 39 quickly and know we're right. We'll focus on three main ways to think about these problems: using place value, using special math rules called properties, and using the connection between adding and subtracting."
(Slide 3: Strategy 1: Place Value Power!)
Visual: Heading "Place Value Power!" Image of base-ten blocks (tens rods and ones cubes) or a place value chart (Tens | Ones). Example: 54 shown as 5 tens rods, 4 ones cubes.
Speaker Notes: "First up is Place Value Power! Remember that numbers are made of tens and ones? Like 54 is 5 tens (or 50) and 4 ones (or 4). We can use this to break problems down."
(Slide 4: Place Value - Addition Example)
Visual: Problem: 56 + 23 = ?
56 -> 50 + 6
23 -> 20 + 3
(50 + 20) + (6 + 3)
70 + 9 = 79
Speaker Notes: "Let's add 56 + 23. Break them up: 56 is 50 and 6. 23 is 20 and 3. Now add the tens: 50 + 20 = 70. Add the ones: 6 + 3 = 9. Put it back together: 70 + 9 = 79. Easy!"
(Slide 5: Place Value - Subtraction Example (with Regrouping))
Visual: Problem: 62 - 38 = ?
62 -> 60 + 2
38 -> 30 + 8
Problem: Can't do 2 - 8!
Regroup: 62 becomes 50 + 12
(50 - 30) + (12 - 8)
20 + 4 = 24
Speaker Notes: "Now subtraction, like 62 - 38. Break it down: 60+2 and 30+8. Uh oh, we can't subtract 8 ones from 2 ones. We need to regroup! Take one ten from the 60 (leaving 50). That ten becomes 10 ones. Add them to the 2 ones we had: 10 + 2 = 12 ones. So 62 is also 50 + 12. NOW subtract. Tens: 50 - 30 = 20. Ones: 12 - 8 = 4. Combine: 20 + 4 = 24."
(Slide 6: Strategy 2: Properties of Operations)
Visual: Heading "Math's Special Rules (Properties!)". Show:
Commutative (Order): a + b = b + a (Maybe icons switching places)
Associative (Grouping): (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) (Maybe icons grouping differently)
Focus: Making Tens! (Highlight numbers that add to 10, like 7+3, 6+4, 8+2, 5+5, 9+1)
Speaker Notes: "Next strategy: Using math's special rules, or Properties. For addition, the order doesn't matter (Commutative) and how you group numbers doesn't matter (Associative). We use these mainly to make addition easier, especially by 'making tens' – finding pairs that add up to 10 or a multiple of 10."
(Slide 7: Properties - Example (Making Tens))
Visual: Problem: 27 + 15 + 5 = ?
Option 1 (Left to right): (27 + 15) + 5 = 42 + 5 = 47
Option 2 (Making Tens): 27 + (15 + 5) = 27 + 20 = 47 OR (using Commutative too) (15+5) + 27 = 20 + 27 = 47. Highlight 15+5.
Speaker Notes: "Look at 27 + 15 + 5. You could just add left-to-right. But look! 15 and 5 make 20, which is a nice round number. Using the associative property, we can group (15 + 5) first. That gives us 20. Now the problem is just 27 + 20, which is 47. Much easier! Always look for ways to make tens when adding several numbers."
(Slide 8: Strategy 3: The Addition/Subtraction Connection)
Visual: Heading "Addition & Subtraction: BFFs!" Show a simple fact family visually:
3 + 4 = 7
4 + 3 = 7
7 - 3 = 4
7 - 4 = 3
Speaker Notes: "Our third strategy uses the fact that addition and subtraction are opposites – they undo each other. They belong to fact families. If you know one fact, you know related facts. This helps us think about subtraction differently."
(Slide 9: Connection - Think Addition / Missing Addend)
Visual: Problem: 85 - 37 = ?
Arrow pointing to: Think: 37 + ? = 85
Speaker Notes: "Instead of thinking 'take away', we can think 'how much more?' For 85 - 37, ask yourself: What do I need to add to 37 to get to 85? This turns subtraction into finding a missing addend."
(Slide 10: Connection - Counting Up Strategy)
Visual: Problem: 85 - 37 = ? Use a number line graphic:
Start at 37.
Jump to 40 (+3). Mark '+3' above the jump.
Jump from 40 to 80 (+40). Mark '+40'.
Jump from 80 to 85 (+5). Mark '+5'.
Add the jumps: 3 + 40 + 5 = 48.
Speaker Notes: "A great way to find the missing addend is 'Counting Up'. Start at the smaller number (37) and make jumps to get to the bigger number (85). Jump to friendly numbers, like the next ten. From 37, jump 3 to get to 40. From 40, jump 40 to get to 80. From 80, jump 5 to get to 85. Now add up your jumps: 3 + 40 + 5 equals 48. So, 85 - 37 = 48! This avoids regrouping."
(Slide 11: Practice Time!)
Visual: Heading "Your Turn, Detective!" List 2-3 practice problems:
e.g., 67 + 28 = ?
e.g., 92 - 56 = ?
e.g., 14 + 38 + 6 = ?
Speaker Notes: "Okay, let's practice! Try these problems. Think about which strategy seems best for each one. Can you use place value? Can you make a ten? Can you count up for subtraction? Let's work through them." (Guide student through solving these, discussing strategy choices).
(Slide 12: Summary & Conclusion)
Visual: Recap the three main strategies:
Place Value (Break Apart Tens & Ones)
Properties (Reorder, Make Tens)
Add/Sub Connection (Think Addition, Count Up)
Message: "Choose the best tool for the job! Practice makes you fluent!"
Speaker Notes: "So today we filled our math toolbox with three powerful strategies: breaking numbers apart using Place Value, rearranging or grouping using Properties, and using the link between Addition and Subtraction, especially counting up. Remember, the goal is fluency – choosing the best strategy for the problem and solving it accurately and efficiently. Keep practicing, and you'll be an amazing math detective!"
