In this lesson, Kate and Nate introduce young learners to the concepts of addition and subtraction using baseballs as a fun visual aid. Students practice counting and learn that adding means combining quantities, as demonstrated by adding one baseball to three to make four. The lesson encourages continued exploration and practice with math in everyday situations.
  1. How many baseballs did Kate and Nate start with?
  2. If we add one more baseball, how many do we have now?
  3. What does adding mean when we play with our toys or snacks?

Meet the Math Facts with Kate & Nate – The Baseballs

Let’s Learn with Kate and Nate!

Hi there! Are you ready to have some fun with Kate and Nate? Today, we’re going to learn about adding and subtracting using baseballs. Let’s see what happens!

Counting Baseballs

Kate and Nate have three baseballs. Can you count them with me? One, two, three! Great job!

Adding More Baseballs

Now, they find one more baseball. Let’s add it to the ones they already have. One, two, three, and one more makes four! So, three plus one equals four. Isn’t that fun?

Learning is Fun!

Did you enjoy learning with Kate and Nate? Remember, adding means putting things together to make more. You can try this with your toys or snacks at home!

Keep Exploring!

There’s so much more to learn and explore. Keep counting and adding, and you’ll become a math superstar in no time!

Join the Fun!

Don’t forget to keep learning and having fun with Kate and Nate. There’s always something new to discover!

  • Can you think of a time when you had to add things together, like toys or snacks? How many did you have at the end?
  • If you were playing with Kate and Nate, what other things would you like to count or add together? Why do you think that would be fun?
  • Have you ever played a game where you needed to count or add things? How did it help you play the game better?
  1. Baseball Counting Game: Gather some small balls or round objects like marbles or buttons. Pretend they are baseballs. Start with three “baseballs” and ask the children to count them. Then, add one more and ask, “How many baseballs do we have now?” Encourage them to say the numbers out loud as they count. Repeat this activity by adding different numbers of “baseballs” each time to practice addition.

  2. Snack Time Math: Use snacks like crackers or fruit pieces to practice adding. Give each child three pieces and ask them to count. Then, give them one more and ask, “How many do you have now?” Let them eat the snacks as a reward for counting correctly. This makes learning fun and delicious!

  3. Math Detective Adventure: Go on a “math detective” walk around the classroom or playground. Ask the children to find groups of objects, like three leaves or three stones. Then, find one more and ask them to add it to their group. Encourage them to share what they found and how many they have now. This helps them see math in the world around them.
