Center Day 3 (optional)

Warm-up: Number Talk: Adding Up to 4 Two-digit Numbers (10 minutes)

This Number Talk encourages students to think about adding multiples of 5 to other multiples of 5 and to look for ways to use the structure of the base-ten system and the properties of operations to mentally solve problems (MP7). The strategies elicited here help students develop fluency with addition within 1,000.
