There’s a big difference between solving a math problem and understanding the math behind it. In this episode, we continue our discussion on addition fluency by exploring how students begin to move beyond early strategies and discover more efficient, flexible ways to add within 10 and 20.

You’ll hear how intentional routines like Number Talks, and visual tools like dot images and ten frames can help students uncover strategies on their own and build the kind of number sense that sticks. It’s not about rushing them to mastery; it’s about giving them the space to reason, make mistakes, and find what makes sense.

This episode is part two of our addition fluency series, and it’s full of practical insights for creating a math classroom where strategies aren’t memorized, they’re discovered.
