Introduction to Addition

• Addition is when we combine two or more numbers to find out how many we have in total.
• It is one of the most important operations in mathematics.
• We use addition every day in various activities, like counting, shopping, and sharing.

Understanding the Plus Sign (+)

• The plus sign (+) means we are going to add numbers together.
• Example: If we have 1 apple and we add 1 more apple, we write it as 1 + 1.
• The answer is called the sum.

---

Counting with Objects

• We can use objects to help us understand addition.
• Example: Count the number of blocks you have and add them to more blocks.
• If you have 3 blocks and get 2 more, you can find the total by counting: 3, 4, 5.

Adding Numbers on a Number Line

• A number line is a helpful tool for addition.
• Start on the first number and jump forward by the second number.
• For example, to add 2 + 3, start at 2 and make 3 jumps: 2, 3, 4, 5.

Using Pictures for Addition

• We can draw pictures to represent addition.
• Example: Draw 2 stars and then 3 more stars.
• Count all the stars you drew to find the total: 2 + 3 = 5 stars.
