Frequently Asked Questions
When should children start learning addition?
Most children are ready to start simple addition concepts in Kindergarten (ages 5-6), often using physical objects or pictures first.
What is regrouping in addition?
Regrouping (also called "carrying") happens when the sum of a column is 10 or more. You write down the ones digit and "carry" the tens digit to the next column. Our Double Digit Addition section covers this extensively.
