Math Magic Time!

How to Solve Problems Step by Step:

First comes reading, then comes thinking.
Read the problem carefully—don’t rush!
Think about what you need to do.
Is it adding? Subtracting? Or maybe counting?
Once you know, you’re ready to go!

Let’s Try a Fun Example:

Problem: If Sally has 5 balloons and gives 2 away, how many does she have left?

Solution: Subtraction means taking away. Taking away means less!
So, 5 - 2 = 3. Sally has 3 balloons left!

See? Easy-peasy, lemon-squeezy!

Tips for Superhero Parents:

1️⃣ Use toys or snacks to show math in action—like counting apples or sharing candies.
2️⃣ Sing songs about numbers (e.g., “One little, two little, three little numbers…”).
3️⃣ Celebrate small wins—every step counts!
4️⃣ Be patient. Learning takes time, but fun makes it faster!

🌟 Wow! You’re a math superstar!
Keep practicing, keep smiling, and soon you’ll be solving problems like a pro!
