Counting Skill:

  1. Identifying Numbers:
    • Let’s learn to recognize numbers from 701 to 720. For example, 701, 702, 703…
    • 🎉 Example: What comes after 709?
  2. Ordering Numbers:
    • Practice putting numbers in order from 1 to 720. This helps us understand the sequence.
    • 🧩 Example: Arrange these numbers in order: 715, 702, 720, 701.
  3. Counting Numbers:
    • We’ll count from 1 to 720. Counting helps us understand the value of each number.
    • 🏰 Example: Count by tens up to 70. What comes after 50?
  4. Writing Numbers:
    • Practice writing numbers neatly, especially from 400 to 720.
    • 🖊️ Example: Write the number 520 in words.

Addition Skill:

  1. Adding Numbers:
    • We’ll learn to add two or three-digit numbers using a method called partial sum.
    • 🎲 Example: Add 345 + 278 using the partial sum method.
  2. Addition Story:
    • Let’s create stories involving addition. This makes it fun and helps us understand the math problem.

Remember, practice makes perfect! 🌟 Let’s work together to become masters of numbers and addition. 🌈

Counting Skill:

  1. Identifying Numbers:
    • Example: What comes after 709?
      • Explanation: After 709, we add 1 to get 710.
  2. Ordering Numbers:
    • Example: Arrange these numbers in order: 715, 702, 720, 701.
      • Explanation: When we order them, it becomes 701, 702, 715, 720.
  3. Counting Numbers:
    • Example: Count by tens up to 70. What comes after 50?
      • Explanation: Counting by tens: 50, 60, 70. The next number is 60.
  4. Writing Numbers:
    • Example: Write the number 520 in words.
      • Explanation: 520 in words is “five hundred twenty.”

Addition Skill:

  1. Adding Numbers:
    • Example: Add 345 + 278 using the partial sum method.
      • Explanation: Add the digits in each place value separately (5 + 8 = 13, carry over 1; 4 + 7 + 1 = 12; 3 + 2 = 5). So, 345 + 278 = 623.
  2. Addition Story:
    • Example: Sarah had 356 candies. She got 243 more. How many candies does she have now?
      • Explanation: Sarah has 356 candies. She got 243 more, so we add: 356 + 243 = 599 candies.

Skip Counting:

  1. By 6s:
    • Example: Skip count by 6 up to 54. What’s the next number?
      • Explanation: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54. The next number is 60.
  2. By 7s:
    • Example: Skip count by 7 up to 35. What’s the next number?
      • Explanation: 7, 14, 21, 28, 35. The next number is 42.
  3. By 9s:
    • Example: Skip count by 9 up to 45. What’s the next number?
      • Explanation: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45. The next number is 54.
  4. By 10s:
    • Example: Skip count by 10 up to 70. What’s the next number?
      • Explanation: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70. The next number is 80.
