Alex and his math's strategy!

The Lightning Group have been learning about place value. They are extending their 'counting in tens' strategy by adding up in tens and using numbers bigger than 100.

Here Alex explains how he works out the question 65 + 60 =
He starts with the number which includes both a tens and ones number and records 6 more additional 10s.
