Let's Add Numbers!
Addition is like putting things together to make a bigger group.
When we add numbers, we're combining them to find out how many we have in total. Today we'll practice adding numbers that make sums up to 20. You're going to be an addition expert!
How to Add Numbers
1️⃣ Count the first group of items
2️⃣ Count the second group of items
3️⃣ Count all the items together to find the total!

Parent Tips 🌟
- Use everyday objects: Have your child add toys, snacks, or household items to make practice fun and concrete.
- Make it a game: Play "addition war" with playing cards or roll dice to create addition problems.
- Celebrate small wins: Praise your child for effort rather than just correct answers to build confidence.
