Stage 2, mathematics, Year B – Unit 22
This unit develops the big idea that addition and subtraction problems can be solved using a variety of strategies.
Students are provided with opportunities to:
- apply place value understanding to solve addition and subtraction problems
- identify the connection between addition and subtraction
- select and explain efficient flexible strategies when solving problems.
