Properties of Addition & Subtraction

1st Grade

Alabama Course of Study Standards: 3

Apply properties of operations as strategies to add and subtract.
Examples: If 8 + 3 = 11 is known, then 3 + 8 = 11 is also known (commutative property of addition). To add 2 + 6 + 4, the second and third numbers can be added to make a ten, so 2 + 6 + 4 = 2 + 10 = 12 (associative property of addition).
When adding 0 to a number, the result is the same number (identity property of zero for addition).

Arizona Academic Standards: 1.OA.B.3

Apply properties of operations (commutative and associative properties of addition) as strategies to add and subtract within 20. (Students need not use formal terms for these properties.)

Common Core State Standards: 1.OA.B.3

Apply properties of operations as strategies to add and subtract. Examples: If 8 + 3 = 11 is known, then 3 + 8 = 11 is also known. (Commutative property of addition.) To add 2 + 6 + 4, the second two numbers can be added to make a ten, so 2 + 6 + 4 = 2 + 10 = 12. (Associative property of addition.)

Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE): 1.NR.2.3

Recognize the inverse relationship between subtraction and addition within 20 and use this inverse relationship to solve authentic problems.

Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks: 1.OA.B.3

Apply properties of operations to add. 6 For example, when adding numbers order does not matter. If 8 + 3 = 11 is known, then 3 + 8 = 11 is also known (Commutative property of addition). To add 2 + 6 + 4, the second two numbers can be added to make a ten, so 2 + 6 + 4 = 2 + 10 = 12 (Associative property of addition). When adding zero to a number, the result is the same number (Identity property of zero for addition).

  • To add 2 + 6 + 4, the second two numbers can be added to make a ten, so 2 + 6 + 4 = 2 + 10 = 12. (Associative property of addition.)
Note: Students need not use formal terms for these properties.
