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
The purpose of this activity is to count an organized arrangement of images and write a number to represent the quantity. The arrangement is designed to encourage kids to count by 10 as each row, except the last, has ten cats. Students may determine the number of tens and ones (10 tens 8 ones is 108) or they may skip count the groups and count on by ones (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108).
MLR7 Compare and Connect.
Synthesis: After all strategies have been presented, lead a discussion comparing, contrasting, and connecting the different approaches. Ask: “How are the strategies similar? How are the strategies different? What connections can you make between the strategies?”
Advances: Representing, Conversing

Monitor for students who count by:
circling groups of cats and then skip counting or adding them
recognizing that first ten rows each have 10 cats

Activity Synthesis
Display student work that shows grouping in different ways.
“How did they group the cats? How did it help them figure out how many there were?” (They circled 5 rows for 50 and another 5 rows, and knew that
\(50 + 50 = 100\)
. Then there are 8 more, which is 108.)
