In the last few chapters, we have looked at 6 different metaphors which lead to addition and subtraction.
There are a few variations of addition & subtraction metaphors which are made difficult because of the language used. It is best to take up these metaphors in 4th or 5th grade after students’ language skills have attained a certain level.
There are 3 of them and we will take up each separately, with the necessary explanations. In each case the original and the new variation are given.
"More Than" metaphor using the words “Less Than”
"Less Than" metaphor using the words “More Than”
"Take Away” metaphor using the idea of "Remainder”
Chapter 1108 gives a summary of ALL addition & subtraction metaphors
