Lesson Introduction: The Magical Math Kingdom

Welcome to the Adventure!

Hello, young explorers! 🌟 Today, we are going to embark on a magical journey into the enchanting world of the Math Kingdom! In this kingdom, we have two important characters that we need to meet: Addi the Addition Wizard and Subby the Subtraction Fairy. They need our help to solve the mysterious problems that keep popping up in their kingdom!

The Quest Begins

Imagine This...

Close your eyes for a moment and picture a place filled with colorful numbers dancing around, and each number has a story to tell. As we explore this kingdom, we will learn how to combine numbers to create new ones (addition) and discover how to take away numbers to find what’s left (subtraction).

Meet Addi and Subby

Your First Challenge

To begin our adventure, we will help Addi and Subby with their very first quest! Here’s what they need:

Challenge: "Help Addi and Subby solve the mystery of the treasure chests!"

  1. Addition Challenge with Addi: There are 24 treasure coins in one chest and 16 treasure coins in another. How many treasure coins do we have in total? Let's calculate!

  2. Subtraction Challenge with Subby: If we open one treasure chest and find that 30 coins are inside, but then we lose 12 coins while exploring, how many coins do we have now?

Get Ready to Share

Once you solve these puzzles, we will gather together and share our answers! Remember, this is a team effort, and together we can make the Math Kingdom sparkle with knowledge! ✨


Let’s put on our thinking caps and dive into the magical math world! Are you ready? 1, 2, 3... let’s go! 🏰💰
