Adding ten means jumping up
ten. If a child has a basic
understanding of place value, it is easy for them to know the ones digit stays
the same, but the ten’s digit increases by one.
It is essential for children to have this basic understanding of adding
ten. Tens are friendly and easy to work
with. So, when helping your child - practice jumping up ten!
10 + 6 = 16
72 + 10 = 82
