Adding and Subtracting


We are learning how to add and subtract quickly
Here are some of the strategies we have been using...
During computer time for Maths today, show how you would work out the problems below and take a video of your strategies.  Upload onto this page.  We will have a look at these to see which ones are the quickest.
1. 28 children were on the bus going to school.  At 8:30am 14 more children got on the bus.  How many children were on the bus then?
2. I had $45 in my wallet.  I bought myself some lunch which cost me $12.  How much money do I have left?
