Your child is learning about place value and will use this knowledge of place value to add 2 and 3 digit numbers. The children will show numbers using drawings like this:

Try giving your child a 2 or 3 digit number and ask your child to make a drawing to represent that number. Later in this unit, we will be working on adding 2 digit numbers using the drawings to help them. They can make Proof Drawings with boxes, sticks, and circles to demonstrate how a new ten is formed from 10 ones.
