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 Number Talk is to elicit strategies and understandings students have for adding within 20.
Students may have many ideas for adding these numbers. In the synthesis, students discuss what they notice about the first two expressions. Students may notice that the expressions are equal and that one expression might help them with the other.
