Hey there, little math explorer! Today, we’re going to have fun with numbers and learn how to add them together. Adding is like putting things together to see how many you have in total. Let’s start with some easy and fun examples!
Imagine you have 3 apples, and your friend gives you 3 more apples. How many apples do you have now? Let’s count together:
3 apples + 3 apples = 6 apples!
Great job! You now have 6 apples in total. Isn’t that fun?
Let’s try another one. You have 1 toy car, and you find 6 more toy cars in your toy box. How many toy cars do you have now?
1 toy car + 6 toy cars = 7 toy cars!
Wow, you have 7 toy cars to play with now!
Now, let’s say you have 2 balloons, and your friend gives you 5 more balloons. How many balloons do you have altogether?
2 balloons + 5 balloons = 7 balloons!
Look at all those colorful balloons! You have 7 balloons now.
Here’s one more. You have 3 candies, and you get 4 more candies. How many candies do you have now?
3 candies + 4 candies = 7 candies!
Yummy! You have 7 candies to enjoy.
Wasn’t that fun? You did an amazing job adding numbers! Keep practicing, and you’ll get even better at it. Remember, math is like a puzzle, and you are a great puzzle solver!
For more fun learning, ask an adult to help you find videos and games about math. Keep exploring and have fun with numbers!
Apple Addition Hunt: Go on a mini scavenger hunt around your house or classroom to find objects you can add together, just like the apples in the story. For example, find 2 pencils and then find 3 more. How many pencils do you have now? Try this with different objects and numbers. Share your findings with a friend or family member!
Toy Car Parade: Gather some of your toy cars or any small toys you have. Start with a small number, like 2 cars, and then add more, one at a time. Count out loud each time you add a car. How many cars do you have when you add 3 more? What about 4 more? Create a parade with your toys and see how long it can get!
Balloon Drawing Fun: Draw a picture of balloons on a piece of paper. Start by drawing 2 balloons, then add 5 more. Count how many balloons you have in total. Can you draw a picture with 10 balloons? Use different colors to make your picture bright and cheerful. Show your drawing to someone and explain how you added the balloons together!
