I got myself in a right pickle trying to help my five year old out when adding 10 consecutively. Basically she doesn't understand the placement of hundreds, tens and units, and I couldn't for the life of me explain it - she ended up counting with crayons!
Any tips on teaching this when working with a written-out sum (ie, not counting up physical objects?)
