The most effective think-aloud in this situation is to walk through the problem and explain each step in a clear and concise manner. Choice C is the best option as it shows Ms. Curtis examining each digit and explaining the next step in the process. This approach allows students to follow along step-by-step and understand the logic behind regrouping in addition. The other options are either too vague (A and B) or too general (D) to be effective in this situation.
