Welcome to Math Adventure: Exploring Number Sense!

🎉 Introduction

Hello, young explorers! Today, we are going to embark on a thrilling math adventure where numbers come to life! Are you ready to become number sense superheroes? Well, buckle up, because we are about to dive into the magical world of counting, comparing, and understanding the numbers around us!

🌈 The Magic Number Box

To start our adventure, each of you will receive a Magic Number Box! This box is not just any ordinary box—it’s filled with special treasures! Inside, you will find colorful counting blocks, shiny buttons, and sparkling star stickers.

🎲 Activity 1: Discovering the Treasures

1. Open Your Magic Number Box: Carefully look at what’s inside.
2. Count Your Treasures: How many blocks do you see? How many buttons? Let’s count them together!
3. Compare Your Finds: Who has more? Who has less? Let’s talk about it!

🕵️‍♂️ Investigating Number Stories

Now that we’ve discovered our treasures, let’s create our first Number Story!

• Prompt: Imagine you have 3 shiny buttons and your friend has 2. If you give 1 button to your friend, how many will each of you have now?

Let’s draw it out! You can use your crayons to illustrate the story. Remember, every number has its own story!

🎉 Wrap-Up

At the end of our lesson, let’s come together to share our number stories, count the treasures again, and celebrate how awesome we are at understanding numbers!
