Exciting Start to Our Maths Lesson: Adding with the 100 Square!

Hello, Superstars! 🌟

Today, we're going to embark on an exciting adventure into the world of adding numbers! Get ready to become math detectives as we explore our magical 100 square!

🧐 What is a 100 Square?

First things first, what is a 100 square? Imagine a giant number grid that helps us see numbers all the way from 1 to 100! Each number is part of a special family, and when we add them together, we unlock new treasures!

🌈 The Challenge: Treasure Hunt!

Now, I have a fun challenge for you! Imagine we're on a treasure hunt! We need to find the secret number by adding two numbers together. Each of you will have a secret pair of numbers. You will use the 100 square to help you discover the treasure!

Let's Get Started!

  1. Gather Around: Let's all sit in a circle so we can see the big 100 square that’s displayed on the board.

  2. Treasure Pairings: I will call out two numbers. For example, if I say "12" and "8", your job is to find these numbers on the 100 square.

  3. Add Them Up: Once you've found both numbers, it's time to add! How many treasures do we find when we add them together?

  4. Shout Out the Answer: After you have your answer, raise your hand and share your findings with the class!

🎉 Let’s Begin!

Are you ready to become treasure-hunting math wizards? Let’s have fun exploring addition with our magical 100 square. Get your thinking caps on, and let’s dive into our exciting lesson today!

Remember, every time you find a new sum, you’re growing smarter! Let's see how many treasures we can uncover together! 🗺️✨
