What to Focus On

  • Addition combines numbers to find a total.
  • The answer in addition is called the sum.
  • Numbers being added are called addends.

  • Changing the order of numbers does not change the sum.
  • Adding zero to a number gives the same number.
  • Grouping does not affect the sum in addition.

  • Arrange numbers in columns properly.
  • Always start adding from the ones place.
  • Carry over extra digits to the next column.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

You can add numbers from left to right just like reading a book.

When you add two numbers, the answer is always bigger than both numbers.

The order of numbers in addition changes the answer.

Memory Tips

Adding zero to any number gives the same number.
