ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel Preschool Prep Company Practice Adding by 8’s! | Meet the Math Drills – Addition
Hey there! Let’s have some fun with numbers and learn how to add using the number 8. Adding is like putting things together to see how many you have in total. Are you ready? Let’s go!
When we add 8 to another number, we get a new number. Let’s see what happens:
Let’s make adding even more fun with some stories!
Imagine you have 8 blocks. You stack 8 more blocks on top. Now, how many blocks do you have? That’s right, 16 blocks! 8 plus 8 equals 16.
Think about singing. You sing 8 notes, then you sing 9 more. How many notes did you sing in total? You sang 17 notes! 8 plus 9 equals 17.
Picture 8 fish swimming in a pond. Then, 10 more fish join them. How many fish are there now? There are 18 fish! 8 plus 10 equals 18.
Keep practicing adding 8 to different numbers. The more you practice, the better you’ll get at it. Remember, math is like a puzzle, and you are a great puzzle solver!
Happy adding!
Apple Counting Game: Gather 18 small objects like toy apples or blocks. Start with 8 objects and ask the children to add more objects one by one, counting out loud as they go. For example, “8 plus 1 is 9,” “8 plus 2 is 10,” and so on. Encourage them to notice patterns as they add more objects.
Number Line Hop: Create a number line on the floor using tape or chalk, marking numbers from 0 to 20. Have the children start at 0 and take 8 hops forward. Then, ask them to add different numbers to 8 by hopping forward the corresponding number of spaces. For example, “Start at 8, now hop 3 more spaces. What number are you on?” This helps them visualize addition.
Story Time Addition: Ask the children to create their own short stories using the concept of adding 8. For example, “I had 8 toy cars, and my friend gave me 5 more. How many do I have now?” Encourage them to draw pictures to illustrate their stories and share them with the class.
