last week my group the circles have been learning rounding and compensating. This is when you round one number to a tidy ten, and then you take away the same amount from the other number.
Below is a picture of how to do this.
I really enjoyed doing this strategy because it is easier to work out problems.
Have you ever done rounding and compensating?
challenge yourself to figure these question out.
1. Ben had 65 cows miss Thompson gave him 59 more how many cows does Ben have now?
2. Jess had 127 kittens and Caleb gave me 75 more how many kittens does Jess have now?
