Learning Path Stones

• Addition
  Once children know that numbers are symbols for objects (2 stands for two cars) they learn to count sets, or groups of objects, to find sums. Finally, sets of objects can be replaced by numerals and added together in equations.
• Division
  Children start by using models (blocks, diagrams, drawings) to represent divison as repeated subtraction, or the inverse of multiplication. Finally, they use long division to divide 2- and 3- digit numbers with remainders and decimals.
• Multiplication
  Children begin to understand multiplication as repeated addition through models (such as adding three groups of two blocks). They begin to memorize multiplication tables, and finally, to multiply 2- and 3- digit numbers, using division to check the results.
• Subtraction
  The inverse of addition is subtraction - to take away objects and tell how many are left. Once children grasp subtraction, sets of objects can be replaced by numerals in equations.
