options: Multiply one-digit whole numbers by multiples of 10 in the range 10–90 (e.g., 9 × 80, 5 × 60) using strategies based on place value and properties of operations.

Fluently add and subtract within 1000 using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.

Use place value understanding to round whole numbers to the nearest 10 or 100.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this Number Talk is to elicit strategies and understandings students have for adding within 1,000, particularly around adjusting numbers in a sum to make them easier to add. These understandings help students develop fluency for adding within 1,000.
When students notice that the same value is being removed from one addend and added to the other and the value of the sum does not change, they look for and make use of structure (MP7).

Activity Synthesis
”Why do you think all of these expressions have the same value?” (Even though each number is changing, the same amount is being added to one number and subtracted from the other number, so the total is the same.)
Consider asking:
“Who can restate _____’s reasoning in a different way?”
“Did anyone have the same strategy but would explain it differently?”
“Did anyone approach the problem in a different way?”
“Does anyone want to add on to _____’s strategy?”
