Welcome, young mathematicians! Today, we are going to embark on an exciting adventure into the world of Number Bonds! But first, let’s set the stage for magic and discovery.
Gather around, everyone! I want to share a little story with you.
Once upon a time, in a mysterious land called Mathopia, there were two friendly treasure hunters named Addie and Subby. They loved to explore caves filled with shiny coins! But there was a secret… to find the hidden treasure, they needed to use their special number skills called Number Bonds!
Before they could dig for treasure, Addie and Subby had to solve a puzzle on their treasure map. The map had a series of colored dots that stood for numbers. When they combined the dots in different ways, they discovered that each pair of dots created a new number, just like magic!
Today, you will join Addie and Subby on their quest! We’ll learn how to create our own number bonds using our colorful counters. Each time we combine our counters, we’ll uncover a new way to show how numbers can work together!
Now that you know our heroes and their mission, it's time to grab some counters or blocks. As we learn together, we’ll help Addie and Subby find their treasure by discovering the wonderful world of number bonds. Get ready to dive into teamwork and fun!
Are you ready? Let’s start our adventure in Mathopia!
