- Use Splat! http://www.stevewyborney.com/?p=893
- Introduced to the idea that a group of ten ones is called a "ten". (unitizing)
- 4 trains of ten cubes each have a value of 10 and would be counted as 40 rather than 4. This is a monumental shift in thinking.
- Being able to conserve the number is important ( 42 cubes is the same as 4 tens and 2 ones) It is not obvious that it can be decomposed yet into various ways (3 groups of 10 and 12 ones)
- 12= 10 + 2
- 5 is greater than 3 and 3 is less than 5.
- 5 is 2 more than 3 and 3 is 2 less than 5.

- Start with simple problems and allow them to find their own strategies.
- Use real-world situations.
- Help students to understand that an equation needs to "balance" (number scales, pan balances are good tools)
- Should we add a word writing problem station using Puppet Pals or other apps? Use QR codes of teacher reading word problems on the smartboard and put into a padlet?
