standard_description: Add within 100, including adding a two-digit number and a one-digit number, and adding a two-digit number and a multiple of 10, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to a written method and explain the reasoning used. Understand that in adding two-digit numbers, one adds tens and tens, ones and ones; and sometimes it is necessary to compose a ten.
problem_activity: Narrative
This warm-up prompts students to carefully analyze and compare equations. In addition to calculating the value of each expression, students also think about the structure of each expression, including both the operations and the numbers (MP7). In the synthesis, students compare an equation with addition and an equation with subtraction to focus student attention on comparing operations and reasoning about the relationship between addition and subtraction.

Which one doesn’t belong?
\(10 = 6 + 4\)
\(16 - 5 = 11\)
\(11 = 6 + 4 + 1\)
\(3 + 8 = 11\)

Activity Synthesis
Display equations B and C.
“How are the equations the same? How are they different?” (They both have the value 11. The first equation uses subtraction while the second one uses addition. The 11 is on the right hand side in the first equation and on the left hand side in the second equation. In the second equation 11 is written using three numbers and there are only two in the first equation.)
