Addition strategies - largest number first
Little Juan and Pedro have been sent to buy sausages for a barbecue. There are going to be 20 guests but they only have 6 sausages. They visit the shop to buy some more, and the shopkeeper says he has a pack of 15. El Nombre helps them to work out whether or not they've now got enough sausages by adding the two numbers together. When Little Juan and Pedro try to add 15 and 6, El Nombre explains it is best to start with the biggest number first when adding two numbers together.
