4 basic conceptual models
100

What is the symbol to show "not a subset"

100

Addition can be modeled as 2 disjoint sets

Sets

100

If a,b,and c are any three whole numbers, then a+(b+c) = (a+b) + c

Associative Property

100

Which property is shown 

3+4

Closure Property

100

1. start with 8 objects (dollars)

2. take away 5 objects

3. how many objects are left 

take away model

200

Use one-to-one correspondence to determine the ordering symbol 

{Sade, Jade, Wade} ___ {1,2,3}

=

200

If A and B are any two disjoint sets for which a=n(A) and b=n(B), then the sum of a and b, written as a+b = n(A u B)

The Addition of Whole Numbers

200

If a is any whole number, then a+0=0

Additive identify property of zero

200

Which property is shown

2+5 = 5+2

Commutative 

200

1. start with 5 objects (chapters)
2. how many more objects are needed  to give a total of 8 objects 

Missing-addened model 

300

Use one-to-one correspondence to determine the sequence 

{a,b} ___ {f,o,o,d}

<

300

The expression a +b, "a plus b" are called

Addens

300

a-b=c

Name a,b,and c

a is minuend

b is subtrahend

c is difference of a and b

300

Which property is shown?

(4+3) + 2 = 4 + (3+2)

Associative property

300

1. start with two collections, with 8 objects in one collection and 5 in the other

Comparison model

400

Use one-to-one correspondence to determine the ordering symbol

{apples, oranges} ___ {cow, duck, chicken, dog}

<

400

If a and b ae any two whole numbers, then a+b is a unique whole number

Closure Property

400

Which property is shown?

a + 0 = 0 + a = a

3 + 0 = 0 + 3 = 3

property of zero

400

1. move forward (to the right) 8 units (miles)

2. remove a jump to the right of 5 units

3. what is the distance from 0

number line model

500

If a and b are any two whole numbers, a + b = b +a

Commutative Property
