Math Adventures: Adding One More! – Greet our little mathematicians – Today’s lesson: Adding one more – We’ll learn to add 1 to numbers 1-9 – Counting with fun pictures – Visual aids make counting clear – Practice counting up to 10 – Let’s count: 1 apple, then add 1 more! | This slide is designed to introduce Pre-K students to the concept of ‘one more’ in a fun and engaging way. Start the lesson by greeting the students warmly to create a welcoming learning environment. Explain that they will learn how to add one more to different numbers using pictures as visual aids. Use images of familiar objects, like fruits or toys, to help them understand the concept of counting and addition. For example, show a picture with one apple, then add another one and count together to show there are now two apples. Encourage the children to participate by counting aloud and using their fingers to add one more. The goal is to make them comfortable with numbers up to 10 and to understand the basic idea of addition by one.

What Does ‘One More’ Mean? – ‘One more’ adds 1 to a number – Example with 3 apples – If we start with 3 apples… – Adding one more apple – Now we have 3 apples plus 1 more – Let’s count to see what we get! – Counting together helps us learn! | This slide introduces the concept of ‘one more’ to Pre-K students using a relatable example of apples. Start by explaining that ‘one more’ means we are adding one additional item to what is already there. Use a visual aid, such as a picture of three apples, and then add one more apple to the group. Ask the students to count the total number of apples with you, reinforcing the concept that 3 apples plus one more apple equals 4 apples. This interactive counting activity will help students grasp the concept of addition in a fun and engaging way. Encourage the students to participate and to think of other examples where they might add ‘one more’ of something in their daily lives.

Counting with Pictures: Adding One More – Pictures help us learn to count – Each picture has some objects – If a picture has 3 apples, we see it – We add one more and count – Then we imagine adding another apple – Let’s count up to 10 together! – Practice with different pictures | This slide is designed to introduce Pre-K students to the concept of ‘one more’ using visual aids. Start by showing pictures with a certain number of objects and have the students count them. Then, add one more object to the picture, either physically or by drawing, and count the objects again. This will help them understand the concept of incrementing by one. Use a variety of pictures with different objects to keep the activity engaging. Encourage the students to participate by asking them to predict the new total before counting again. This interactive approach helps solidify their counting skills up to 10.

Let’s Practice Together: Adding One More! – Count objects in the picture – Add one more object If we have 4 apples and add 1 more, we have 5 apples. – Count the new total – Understand ‘one more’ Adding one more means the number gets bigger by 1. | This slide is designed to be interactive and visually engaging for Pre-K students. Start by showing a picture with a certain number of objects, up to 10, and ask the students to count them aloud. Then, add one more object to the picture and ask the students to count again. This exercise helps them understand the concept of ‘one more’ in a tangible way. Reinforce the idea that each time we add one more, the total increases by one. Use different sets of objects to make the activity fun and repeat the process to ensure the concept is clear. Encourage the children to use their fingers to count and to visualize the addition of one more object to a set.

Adding One More Star – Starting with 5 stars – Add one more star Look at the picture, place another star – Count the stars now Let’s count them together: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and the new one makes 6! – Celebrate our 6 stars | This slide is designed to teach Pre-K students the concept of ‘one more’ in a visual and interactive way. Start with an image showing 5 stars. Then, add another star to the image, making it a total of 6 stars. Ask the students to count the stars before and after adding one. This helps them understand the concept of addition by one in a tangible way. Encourage the students to participate in counting and to applaud when they reach the new total. This activity can be repeated with different objects to reinforce the concept.

Learning ‘One More’ with Numbers! – Numbers show ‘one more’ – Start at number 4 – What is one more than 4? – If we have 4 apples, adding one more makes 5 apples. – Yes, it’s 5! Great job! | This slide is designed to teach Pre-K students the concept of ‘one more’ using numbers up to 10. Start by explaining that numbers can help us count one more of something. Use a visual example, like 4 apples, and then add one more to visually demonstrate that 4 plus one more is 5. Encourage the students to participate by asking what comes after 4. Praise correct answers to reinforce learning. For the activity, provide various sets of objects or pictures and ask students to add ‘one more’ and then count the total. This interactive approach helps solidify the concept of adding one to a given number.

Class Activity: Adding One More – Try adding one more yourself! – Use your worksheets with object groups – Look at the pictures and add one more item – Count each group carefully – Make sure to point and count each item out loud – How many are there now? – After adding one, count the new total | This activity is designed to help Pre-K students practice the concept of ‘one more’ using visual aids. Distribute worksheets with groups of objects, each group having up to 9 items to ensure the total does not exceed 10. Encourage students to draw one additional item to each group and then count the new total aloud. This reinforces their counting skills and understanding of addition. Possible variations for the activity: use stickers to add one more, have physical objects they can place in a group, or use a drawing app on a tablet. Observe the students as they work, offering help to those who struggle with counting or understanding the task.

Review and Goodbye: Counting One More – Recap: ‘One more’ concept – We learned to add one more to numbers up to 10. – Show ‘one more’ with fingers – Can you add one more finger to show 6? Now we have 7! – Praise for today’s learning – Excitement for next Math Adventure | Today’s lesson focused on understanding the concept of ‘one more.’ As we wrap up, reinforce this concept by asking the children to show ‘one more’ using their fingers, which provides a tactile and visual way to comprehend addition. Acknowledge their hard work and progress in today’s session to boost their confidence. End the class on a high note, expressing enthusiasm for the next lesson to keep them excited about learning more Math concepts.
