Make 1,000: what children learn
Making 1,000 is a mental-math skill: 620 needs 380 more because 620 + 80 = 700 and 700 + 300 = 1000. Finding the next hundred first keeps the counting easy.
Make 1,000: worked example
620 + __ = 1000 380
620 + 80 = 700. 700 + 300 = 1000. 80 + 300 = 380.
Make 1,000: a common mistake to watch for
Kids sometimes stop at the next hundred instead of going all the way to 1,000.
Make 1,000: how to help at home or in class
Draw a long number line from 0 to 1,000 with a tick at every hundred. Pick a number such as 350, have your child hop to the next hundred, then hop from there to 1,000, saying both jumps out loud and adding them together. Fade the line over a week until the hops happen in the head. Mental jumping like this is what makes subtracting from 1,000 feel easy afterwards.
