Hundreds, tens and ones

What your child practices

Adding and subtracting three-digit numbers using place value, and adding or taking away 10 or 100 in their head.

Maine Learning Results learning standard: 2.NBT.B.7; 2.NBT.B.8 · adding and subtracting within 1000 using place value, and mentally adding or subtracting 10 or 100

How we explain it

Children can open this short lesson before they practice.

  1. Add the hundreds, then the tens, then the ones.
  2. Regroup 10 ones as a ten, or 10 tens as a hundred.
  3. 10 more or 100 more changes just one digit.

Example: What is 345 + 132? 300 + 100 = 400. 40 + 30 = 70. 5 + 2 = 7. 400 + 70 + 7 = 477. Answer: 477
