Hello, wonderful Year 1 learners! Are you ready to embark on an exciting adventure in the land of numbers? Today, we're going to explore the magical world of Addition!
Let’s imagine we are all sitting in a beautiful garden filled with lovely flowers. This isn't just any garden; it’s a Magic Garden! Each flower has a number on it, and they love having fun together.
In our garden, we have two bright yellow daisies and three lovely red roses. Can you help me figure out how many flowers we have in total?
Now, let's count all the flowers together.
Start by counting the 2 daisies:
1, 2...
Now add the 3 roses:
1, 2, 3...
Now, let’s put them together!
Let’s shout the answer together!
2 + 3 = 5 flowers!
Now that you see how much fun addition can be, I have a garden challenge for you!
If you draw 4 sunflowers and 1 tulip, you would write:
4 + 1 = 5 flowers in your garden!
Are you excited? Grab your crayons and let's create our magical gardens while we learn more about adding numbers together! Remember, every flower you draw brings more fun into our addition adventure! 🥳🌻
Today, we have started our lesson by using a fun story about a magic garden to introduce addition. With your creativity and imagination, we are going to add numbers together while having a blast! Let’s add up the fun!
