Objective

By the end of this lesson, you will be able to add 4 to numbers 1-10.

Materials and Prep

• Pencil
• Blank paper

Activities

1. Warm-up: Start by counting from 1 to 10 out loud.

Counting helps us understand numbers and their order.

2. Introduction: Write down the numbers 1 to 10 on the paper, leaving enough space between each number.

This will give us a visual representation of the numbers we'll be working with.

3. Practice: Add 4 to each number on the list, one at a time.

For example, if we add 4 to 1, we get 5. Write down the answer next to the number.

4. Review: Go through the list again and say the answers out loud.

Repetition helps reinforce what we've learned.

5. Challenge: Close your eyes and randomly point to a number on the list. Add 4 to that number.

This will test your ability to apply what you've learned without looking at the list.

Second Grade Talking Points

• "Adding means putting two or more numbers together to find the total."
• "We can add 4 to numbers by counting 4 steps forward."
• "Adding 4 to a number makes it bigger."
• "When we add 4 to 1, we get 5. This means we move 4 steps forward from 1."
• "Adding 4 to 2 gives us 6. We move 4 steps forward from 2."
• "We can use our fingers to help us count if we need to."
• "Adding 4 to 10 gives us 14. We move 4 steps forward from 10."
• "Remember to double-check your answers to make sure they are correct."
