problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this Number Talk is to elicit strategies and understandings students have for making a ten when adding within 20. The numbers chosen lend themselves to making a ten to find the value of the sum. These understandings help students develop fluency and will be helpful later in this lesson when students make a ten when adding one-digit numbers and two-digit numbers.

Activity Synthesis
“How could
\(8 + 2\)
help you to find the value of
\(8 + 5\)
?” (I can add 2 to 8 to get to 10, and then I have 3 more to add.
\(10 + 3\)
is 13.)
