What Does Adding 7 Mean?
Adding 7 means you're making a number bigger by 7!
Imagine you have some cookies and someone gives you 7 more. Adding helps us know how many you have altogether.
How to Add 7
1️⃣ Start with your first number (like 5)
2️⃣ Count up 7 more: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
3️⃣ The number you land on is your answer! (5 + 7 = 12)
