Good morning, explorers! Today, we're going on a magical journey into the enchanting land of numbers! Are you ready?
Imagine you have just received a mysterious treasure map that leads to the Number Kingdom. On this map, there are various landmarks like the Place of Patterns, the Forest of Fractions, and the Cave of Comparisons. Each landmark holds puzzles and riddles that we must solve to uncover the magical treasure of Number Sense!
Before we set off on our adventure, let’s unlock the first magic key: understanding how numbers relate to one another!
To get started, I need your help to gather supplies for our journey! Each of you will receive a Number Skills Passport where you can write down your discoveries and notes as we explore.
Grab Your Passport: Quickly find a blank piece of paper or your math notebook. This will be your adventure journal where you jot down thoughts and discoveries!
Draw Your Treasure Map: On the first page, draw a simple map with paths leading to the different landmarks. You can decide where each landmark stands in relation to the others!
As we begin this exciting lesson on Number Sense, remember: every puzzle you solve brings us closer to the treasure. Now, let’s step into the Number Kingdom together!
Are you excited? Let’s embark on this magical adventure and discover the wonders that numbers have in store for us! 🏰😁
