I have $125. If I buy the $89 ticket, how much money will I have left?
What pictures do students have of numbers/operations?
What pictures do students need to calculate mentally with subtraction?

The mathematical structure of numbers include:
Counting – a discrete representation:ungroupedgroupedplace value
Measurement – a continuous representation:lineararea

Counting is not an efficient strategy.
The students do (and we stress) too much counting.
Counting

How do we calculate if our picture of numbers is one that relates more to counting than some of the other representations?
Find the difference

Place value is an abstract system that enables us to read and write numbers.

Remember, place value is just one of the structures. In some situations other representations may be more useful – particularly for mental strategies involving addition and subtraction (and of course for fractions and even decimals).

The only model that can be used with ALL numbers.
The best model for many strategies Not enough time (probably no time) is spent to develop this model.
And then, the true linear aspects of the model are not stressed.
Linear

How does a number line show a number?
What is 38 on this number line?
When asked, most people say a number such as three is at a particular ‘point.’
A number is a length (starting at 0).

When students are asked to work with a number such as thirty-eight, what ‘picture’ do they use?
How would you work out the difference between the prices of these two items?

Some important and less structured features of numbers include being able to :
Partition a number in multiple ways:
Double/halve with confidence:

Are their other pictures that we use which are not based on a strict mathematical structure?

The type of problem and choice of numbers influence how you think. Change either, and you may want to use a different strategy.
