🎉 Introduction: The Magical Mystery of Numbers!

Hello, young explorers! Today, we're embarking on an exciting adventure where words and numbers join forces. Get ready to discover the magic of addition while we also polish our English skills!

📖 Story Time: The Great Number Quest

Let me share a special story with you. Once upon a time, in a land filled with colorful numbers, there lived a friendly addition wizard named Addy McAddface. Addy loved to help his number friends come together to create new, bigger numbers.

One day, he received a letter from the Number Kingdom. The king needed help with some tricky math facts! Can you help Addy McAddface solve them? 🧙‍♂️✨

Now, let’s gather around for our storytime!

🗣️ Read Aloud:

"Addy woke up one sunny morning with his magic wand in hand. He decided to visit the Number Kingdom. On his first stop, he met 1 and 2, who looked worried. 'What’s wrong?' asked Addy. They replied, 'We want to join together to become a bigger number!'

Addy waved his wand and said, 'Let’s add! 1 + 2 = ?'

Can you guess what happened next?"

[Pause and encourage students to think about the answer. They might shout out “3!”]

“That's right! 1 + 2 = 3! Together, they made a new friend! 🎉”

🎈 Fun Activity: Number Friends

Now that you've helped Addy with his first math fact, let’s become Number Friends!

  1. Grab a partner. You’ll each get a small card with a number on it (1 – 10).
  2. Now, find your number friend! Add your numbers together!
  3. Share your new number with the class!

✨ Wrap-Up

Isn’t it fun to see how numbers can work together like friends? Just like in stories, we can create something wonderful by adding our talents!
