    Savannah Miller is teaching a first grade class about addition. Many of the students have little understanding of numerical quantities and do not realize that combining two numbers makes a new total number. During the lesson, Savannah realizes the limitation of using the sentence frame "____ and ____ is/are _____" to describe addition problems, as it can lead students to think "is the answer" rather than explaining the mathematical process. She is looking for suggestions on a better way to phrase the addition sentence to avoid this misunderstanding.
