Lesson Summary:

In this lesson, Julie Harland teaches an alternative method of adding numbers without carrying by adding from left to right. This method eliminates the confusion that often arises from carrying and allows for a more natural left-to-right progression. Harland demonstrates this approach with several examples, including adding numbers with multiple digits and adding more than two numbers together. While it may take a bit longer than the traditional method, this approach can be helpful for those who struggle with carrying.
