The video tutorial introduces a strategy to simplify addition by finding a group of 10. The teacher demonstrates this method using shapes, apples, and coins, showing how to reorganize numbers to make addition easier. Students are encouraged to use labels and drawings to organize their work and apply the strategy independently.

What was the main reason the teacher wanted to organize the shapes in the classroom?

• To teach students about different shapes

• To decorate the classroom

• To ensure none were missing for the next lesson

• To create a new art project

How did the teacher simplify the addition of 9, 1, and 4?

• By finding a group of ten

• By dividing each number by 2

• By multiplying all numbers by 2

• By subtracting 1 from each number

In the apple problem, what was the purpose of using labels?

• To make the problem more difficult

• To confuse the students

• To keep the information organized

• To make the drawing colorful

What was the new number sentence after finding the group of ten in the apple problem?

• 8 + 4

• 5 + 5 + 2

• 10 + 2

• 7 + 3 + 2

In the coin problem, which two groups were combined to make a group of ten?

• All three groups combined

• Hannah's and Bella's coins

• Aiden's and Bella's coins

• Hannah's and Aiden's coins

What was the final number sentence in the coin problem after finding the group of ten?

• 7 + 5

• 9 + 1 + 3

• 10 + 3

• 3 + 6 + 4

What is the first step in solving the pencil problem?

• Guessing the total number of pencils

• Labeling the information

• Finding a group of ten immediately

• Drawing a picture without labels

How many pencils does Claire need?

• Eight

• Four

• Ten

• Two

What should students do after drawing and labeling the pencil problem?

• Add all numbers without finding a ten

• Write a number sentence with three numbers

• Erase the drawing

• Submit the drawing without solving

What is the final task for students after solving the pencil problem?

• Start a new problem

• Submit their work to the teacher

• Erase their work

• Discuss the problem with a partner
