Number lines – up to 100
Key notes:
🌟 Key Points: Number Lines – Up to 100 🌟
🔢 What is a Number Line?
➡️ A number line is a straight line with numbers placed in order from left to right.
➡️ It helps us count, compare, and add or subtract numbers easily!
🧮 Counting on the Number Line
👉 Numbers start from 0 or 1 and go up to 100.
👉 Each number has its own equal space on the line.
👉 Moving right ➡️ means counting forward (numbers get bigger).
👉 Moving left ⬅️ means counting backward (numbers get smaller).
🌈 Example:
➡️ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, … 100
➕ Move right from 5 to 8 → numbers increase
➖ Move left from 8 to 5 → numbers decrease
💡 Using Number Lines for Addition
✨ Example: 4 + 3 = ?
Start at 4, move 3 steps to the right → You land on 7! 🎯
💡 Using Number Lines for Subtraction
✨ Example: 9 – 2 = ?
Start at 9, move 2 steps to the left → You land on 7! 🎯
🧠 Remember:
🌟 Numbers increase as you go right ➡️
🌟 Numbers decrease as you go left ⬅️
🌟 Always start counting from 0 or 1.
🎨 Fun Tip:
Try drawing your own number line with different colors 🎨 and stickers 🌟 for every 10 numbers —
Example:
🔵 0–10, 🔴 11–20, 🟢 21–30, 🟡 31–40, … up to 💜 91–100
🏆 Why Number Lines Are Important:
✅ Help us understand counting and order
✅ Make addition and subtraction easy
✅ Build strong number sense 🧩
✨ In short:
➡️ A number line is like a road of numbers!
➡️ Going right = bigger numbers
➡️ Going left = smaller numbers 🚗💨
Learn with an example
🥤Type the missing number.

- Find the number that comes between 2 and 4. You can start at 2 and count up.
- 3 comes between 2 and 4.

🥤Which number comes just before 8?

- First, find 8 on the number line.

- Now find which number comes just before 8. Look one number to the left on the number line.

- 7 comes just before 8.
🥤Type the missing number.

- Find the number that comes after 7. You can start at 3 and count up.
- 8 comes after 7.
