[quote=Anonymous]Welcome to Common Core where they teach math this way. I learned "carry the one" growing up. My oldest is learning multiple ways of adding (including the 35+51 example above). Teaching anything other than "carry the one" seems more complicated but I realized that for years, when adding in my head, I'll do the 35+51 method. I just wouldn't have known how to teach or explain that. Now, don't get started on my oldest not memorizing multiplication tables. [/quote]
