This video is aimed at kindergarten students and demonstrates how to teach dynamic addition at home. If your child has mastered all the nines layout lessons and is very comfortable with static addition, this lesson is for you! A dynamic equation is one in which you have to “carry” or “borrow” from the next numeral family. In Montessori, we prepare the child for these types of problems by demonstrating how to make equal exchanges using the concrete golden bead materials.
This video will show you how to play “The Exchange Game” and solve dynamic addition problems into the thousands. You can write your own equations or use this FREE PRINTABLE we’ve created for you! Not every early childhood student will be ready for this lesson by the end of their third year - and that’s okay! Follow your child’s lead and keep it fun!
