Mental Arithmetic and Strategy Use with Indirect Number Problems up to One Hundred.

Beishuizen, M.; And Others

Learning and Instruction, v7 n1 p87-106 Mar 1997

Mental arithmetic strategies were studied with 91 Dutch third graders who computed by splitting off 10s and units in both numbers or counting by 10s up or down from the first unsplit number. Results reveal flexibility in changing between and within strategy use. Implications for instruction are discussed. (SLD)
