The Additive Identity Property states that adding zero to a numer does not change the number: a + 0 = a and 0 + a = a.
The Commutative Property of Addition states that changing the order of the addends does not change the sum: a + b = b + a.
addition sentence: a number sentence where one number is added to another.
Add 1 + 5 to get 6. If you change the order of the addends, the sum is still 6.

Be mindful of the three different kinds of subtraction problem situations: Take Apart/Addend Unknown, Take from/Start Unknown, and Take from/Change Unknown.

Any number subtracted from itself has zerro as the difference.

10 is 1 more than 9.
9 – 1 = 8 take apart 9 .
10 – 9 = 1 subtracted 9
9 + 9 = 18 added 9

4 – 1 = 3 vertical subtraction sentence. 4 is the starting number (top number), then subtract 1, and 3 is the difference. The line above the 3 means is equal to.
