DS (just finished Yr1) is v.into maths and asking how do I, etc? DH was showing him how to add up bigger numbers, but something DS said made me think they teach them differently to how we were taught. Don't want to confuse him by showing him the wrong way, so how do they teach say adding 52 + 46 these days? I'd add 6+2, then 5+4, but are they taught to add the tens or hundreds first instead?
