Good morning, everyone! Today, we are going to dive into the exciting world of whole numbers! To kick things off, let me ask you a fun question: What do you think makes up our world?
Imagine for a moment that you are a superhero, and your superpower is the ability to see how many of everything is around you! From the number of apples in the basket to the number of steps you take on your way to school, whole numbers are everywhere!
Now, I have a special challenge for you! I want each of you to look around the classroom for one minute. As you do, count how many objects you can see. These can be books on the shelf, pencils on your desk, or even the number of students in your group.
Take a deep breath... Ready, set, go! 📏🧮
(After one minute)

Great job, everyone! As we shared our counting adventures, we discovered that each count was made up of whole numbers. Whole numbers are the simplest numbers we can use; they are just like your counting fingers – starting from 0 and going all the way to as many as we like.
Are you ready to learn all about whole numbers today? Let’s get started!
Remember, math isn’t just about numbers; it’s about exploring, playing, and most importantly, having fun! Let's go! 🎉
