Learning Scenario: Classroom Library Corner

The Problem:

Our classroom library has 23 story books and 15 science books. How many books do we have in total?

23 + 15 = ?

Break Apart Strategy:

Step 1: Break apart the numbers
Step 2: Add tens first (20 + 10 = 30)
Step 3: Add ones second (3 + 5 = 8)
Step 4: Combine results (30 + 8 = 38)

Break Apart Strategy: Step-by-Step

Example: 23 + 15

Step 1: Break apart the numbers

23 = 20 + 3

15 = 10 + 5

Step 2: Add tens first

20 + 10 = 30

Step 3: Add ones second

3 + 5 = 8

Step 4: Combine results

30 + 8 = 38
