Addition Learning

Addition is a process which children learn quite naturally as soon as they learn to start counting. During kindergarten and first grade, adding piles of objects together is really important and reinforces childrens understanding of place value and 1:1 correspondence.

Later on, when children are confident adding piles of objects together, they can progress on to number lines or counting on in their heads. When children have understood this, they can begin to learn their addition facts and progress on to column addition. At 4th and 5th grade level, they start adding decimals.

Knowing your addition facts is still a key skill that children need to be able to use in real life math - you may not always have a pencil and paper to hand to do your column addition, but you will always have your addition facts!

Introducing Addition

Children learn about adding up and counting at the very beginning of their journey through math.

We start by teaching children to add by counting concrete objects and gradually introduce more abstract ways to add numbers together.

We teach children formal methods for adding up numbers in columns and then increase the size of the numbers.

At higher levels, we learn to add up decimals, fractions and add like terms in algebra.
