Lesson 20

Sumemos y restemos hasta 1,000,000

Lesson Purpose

The purpose of this lesson is for students to add and subtract within 1,000,000 with multiple compositions or decompositions.

Lesson Narrative

In this lesson, students use the standard algorithm for addition and subtraction to the hundred-thousands place. They build their fluency with the algorithm as they encounter examples where more than one digit has to be decomposed in order to subtract. Students also look at errors that are commonly made when using the algorithm to find sums and differences.
