Teaching and response guide
- Model the target skill: align two-digit addends vertically by place value (tens and ones). Use the first task as a guided example before asking for an independent response.
- Check readiness first: Add without regrouping and exchange ten ones for one ten.
- Discuss an incorrect response using this distinction: Carry one ten into the tens column rather than adding the written carry to the ones a second time.
Watch for: Carry one ten into the tens column rather than adding the written carry to the ones a second time.
Check the answer criteria for each task. A supported explanation may have more than one acceptable response. These activities offer evidence to discuss; completing a sheet alone does not establish mastery.
