Adding 3

Learn with an example

🗼 Add . 4 + 3 =

  • You can count on to find 4 + 3 .
  • Start at 4 and count on 3 times.
  • You end at 7.
  • 4 + 3 = 7

🗼 Add . 3 + 0 =

When you add 0 to a number, the number stays the same.

3 + 0 = 3

🗼 Add. 2 + 3 =

  • You can count on to find 2 + 3.
  • It is easier to start with the larger number. So, start at 3. Count on 2 times.
  • You end at 5.
  • 2 + 3 = 5

__________________________________________________

  • You can also add using doubles plus one.
  • Remember the doubles fact 2 + 2 = 4.
  • Notice that 2 + 3 is 1 more. That makes 5.
  • 2 + 3 = 5
