🧠 What is Addition?

  • Addition means putting things together to find out how many in all.
  • Example: 🍎 5 apples + 🍎 3 apples = 🍎 8 apples

🎯 Addition Facts up to 20

These are basic number combinations that add up to 20 or less.

Example:

  • 1 + 1 = 2
  • 5 + 5 = 10
  • 7 + 8 = 15
  • 10 + 10 = 20

💡 Doubles Facts

Doubles help in quick addition! ⚡

  • 1 + 1 = 2 🍬
  • 2 + 2 = 4 🦋
  • 3 + 3 = 6 🐞
  • 4 + 4 = 8 🌼
  • 5 + 5 = 10 🖐️

🎲 Near Doubles

If you know doubles, you can add near doubles easily! 😄

  • 4 + 5 → (4 + 4) + 1 = 9
  • 6 + 7 → (6 + 6) + 1 = 13

🍭 Making 10 (Magic Number 10!)

Learn combinations that make 10 ✨

  • 1 + 9 = 10
  • 2 + 8 = 10
  • 3 + 7 = 10
  • 4 + 6 = 10
  • 5 + 5 = 10

🧩 Add Zero and Add One

  • Adding 0 keeps the number the same ➡️ 7 + 0 = 7
  • Adding 1 makes the number go up by one ➡️ 7 + 1 = 8

🌟 Turn-around Facts (Commutative Property)

You can flip the numbers, and the sum stays the same 🔁

  • 3 + 5 = 8 is the same as 5 + 3 = 8

📊 Practice Tips

  • Use fingers 🖐️, counters 🍬, or beads 🔵 to add.
  • Draw pictures ✏️ or use number lines to count on.
  • Practice with flashcards 💌 and fun games 🎮.

🌈 Remember

  • Keep practicing every day! 💪
  • Try to memorize addition facts like a song 🎶
  • Learning addition makes math fun and easy! 😍
  • When you add 0 to a number, the number stays the same.
  • 0 + 3 = 3
  • You can count on to find 5 + 6.
  • It is easier to start with the larger number. So, start at 6. Count on 5 times.
  • You end at 11.
  • 5 + 6 = 11

__________________________________________________

  • You can also add using doubles plus one.
  • Remember the doubles fact 5 + 5 = 10.
  • Notice that 5 + 6 is 1 more. That makes 11.
  • 5 + 6 = 11
  • You can count on to find 5 +1.
  • Start at 5 and count on 1 time.
  • You end at 6.
  • 5 + 1 = 6
