Lesson 3

Sumar y restar con decenas

Warm-up: Cuántos ves: Grupos de 10 (10 minutes)

Narrative

The purpose of this How Many Do You See is for students to subitize or use grouping strategies to describe the images they see. This leads into the next activity, in which students add or subtract 10 from multiples of 10. The third image introduces a base-ten drawing, which students will see throughout the rest of the unit.

Launch

  • Groups of 2
  • “¿Cuántos ven? ¿Cómo lo saben?, ¿qué ven?” // “How many do you see? How do you see them?”
  • Flash the image.
  • 30 seconds: quiet think time

Activity

  • Display the image.
  • “Discutan con su pareja cómo pensaron” // “Discuss your thinking with your partner.”
  • 1 minute: partner discussion
  • Record responses.
  • Repeat for each image.

Activity Synthesis

  • “¿En qué se parecen las torres de 10 y el dibujo de la última imagen? ¿En qué son diferentes?” // “How are the cube towers of 10 the same as the drawing in the last image? How are they different?” (They both show 4 tens in different ways. One looks like cubes and one looks like a drawing.)

Activity 1: ¿Cuántas decenas tienen ahora? (10 minutes)

Narrative

The purpose of this activity is for students to use towers of 10 to physically add or subtract a ten from a multiple of 10. The structure of this task encourages students to notice patterns in the count of tens and the numbers used to represent the count. Students connect adding and subtracting a ten to skip-counting forward or backward by ten and what they've learned about counting groups of tens from previous lessons (MP7, MP8).

Required Materials

Launch

  • Groups of 3
  • Give each group 9 towers of 10 connecting cubes.
  • Muestren 1 decena” // “Show 1 ten.”
  • “Sumen una decena. ¿Cuántas tienen ahora?” // “Add a ten. How many do you have now?”
  • 30 seconds: partner discussion
  • Share responses.
  • Ahora que ya respondimos la primera juntos, ustedes y sus parejas seguirán sumando 1 decena y anotarán cada vez cuántas tienen. Mientras trabajan, hablen con su pareja sobre lo que observan acerca de los números” // “Now that we have answered the first one together, you and your partner will keep adding 1 ten and record how many you have each time. As you work, talk to your partner about what you notice about the numbers.”

Activity

  • 5 minutes: partner work time
  • Monitor for students who represent the value with:
    • base-ten drawings
    • __ tens
    • two-digit number
    • addition equations

Activity Synthesis

  • Display 7 towers of 10.
  • “Tengo 7 decenas, que son 70 cubos. ¿Cuántos tendré si sumo una decena más? ¿Como lo puedo representar?” // “I have 7 tens, which is 70 cubes. How many will I have if I add one more ten? How can I represent it?”
  • Invite selected students to share their representations.
  • “¿Cómo se relacionan estas representaciones?” // “How are these representations related?” (They all show the same value.)
  • “¿Qué observaron cada vez que sumaron una decena?” // “What did you notice each time you added a ten?” (The number was the next number you say when you count by ten. The number of tens was 1 more. One of the digits changed. It went up by 1.)
  • “¿Qué observaron cada vez que restaron una decena?” // “What did you notice each time you subtracted a ten?” (The number was the number you say when you count back by 10. The number of tens was 1 less. One of the digits changed. It was 1 less.)

Activity 2: Conozcamos “Cinco en línea: Suma o resta 10” (15 minutes)

Narrative

The purpose of this activity is for students to learn stage 4 of the Five in a Row center. Students choose a card that shows a multiple of 10. They choose whether to add or subtract 10 from the number on the card to cover a number on their gameboard.

MLR8 Discussion Supports. Display sentence frames to encourage partner discussion during the game: “Voy a sumar 10. La suma es _____” // “I will add 10. The sum is _____.” and “Voy a restar 10. La diferencia es _____” // “I will subtract 10. The difference is _____.”
Advances: Speaking, Conversing, Representing
Action and Expression: Internalize Executive Functions. To support working memory, provide students with access to sticky notes or mini whiteboards to keep track of solutions for adding 10 or subtracting 10 before making a choice of where to place the counter on the gameboard.
Supports accessibility for: Memory, Organization
