Your next great Lessn starts here.

Welcome to Addition! – Learning to add numbers – Addition makes numbers bigger – Like 2 apples + 3 apples = 5 apples – Pictures help us understand addition – We’ll use images to add up to 10 – Practice adding with pictures – Let’s add 4 stars + 5 stars together! | This slide introduces first graders to the concept of addition as a means of combining numbers to get a larger number. Emphasize that addition is like putting things together in a group. Use everyday examples like fruits or toys to illustrate this point. Show how pictures can be a fun and easy way to visualize this process, especially for sums up to 10. Encourage the students to think of addition as a gathering of items, and use the pictures to help them count the total. Prepare to engage the students with simple addition exercises using pictorial representations, which will help them grasp the concept of addition in a concrete way.

Learning to Add: Sums Up to 10 – What is addition? – Combining groups to find the total number – The ‘+’ sign means ‘put together’ – Adding makes numbers bigger – Practice with sums up to 10 – Use pictures to add numbers like 4+3 or 2+5 | This slide introduces the concept of addition to first graders. Start by explaining that addition is the process of combining two or more groups to find out the total amount. Show the ‘+’ sign and explain that it means to ‘put together’ items from both groups. Emphasize that when we add, the total number of items increases, making the number bigger. Use visual aids like pictures or objects to demonstrate simple addition problems that sum up to 10, such as 4 apples plus 3 apples. Encourage students to use their fingers or counters to practice adding numbers together. The goal is for students to become comfortable with the concept of addition and to understand that it helps us find out ‘how many in total’ when we combine groups.

Adding with Pictures: Fruits Galore! – Pictures help us add – Count apples and oranges – If we have 3 apples and 2 oranges, let’s count them all. – Total fruits together – After counting each fruit, we combine the totals for the sum. – Adding up to 10 – Practice adding different fruits until the total is 10. | This slide is designed to introduce first graders to the concept of addition using visual aids. By counting apples and oranges in pictures, students can visually understand the process of combining two groups to find the total amount. The activity should involve counting items in images up to a sum of 10, reinforcing the concept of addition within a manageable range for their age. Encourage students to participate by asking them to count aloud and to discuss the results. Provide various examples with different numbers of fruits to ensure they grasp the concept of adding different quantities. The goal is to make learning addition fun and interactive through the use of familiar items like fruits.

Let’s Practice Adding with Pictures! – Count items in each picture – Use ‘+’ to combine groups – The ‘+’ sign means to add together – Write the sum of the items – Add the numbers from both groups – Sums will be up to 10 | This slide is designed to help first graders practice addition using visual aids. Present pictures with different groups of items, ensuring that the total does not exceed 10. Teach the students to count the items in each group and then use the ‘+’ sign to indicate that they are adding the two groups together. After they have counted the items in both groups, instruct them to write the total number of items to find the sum. This activity reinforces the concept of addition and helps students become comfortable with combining groups of items to find a total. Encourage students to use their fingers or physical objects to count if they need to. The goal is to build their confidence in adding numbers up to 10.

Adding with Pictures: Balloons! – Count the first group of balloons – There are 3 balloons in the first group. – Count the second group of balloons – The second group has 2 balloons. – Count all balloons for the total – Adding them together gives us 5 balloons in total. – Understand addition up to 10 | This slide is designed to introduce first-grade students to the concept of addition using visual aids. Start by showing a picture with a group of 3 balloons, and have the students count them aloud. Then, present a second picture with 2 balloons and repeat the counting process. Finally, show a picture combining both groups and guide the students to count all the balloons together, arriving at the total sum of 5. Emphasize that addition is simply combining two groups to find out how many there are in total. Reinforce the concept by using different pictures with various objects, ensuring that the sums do not exceed 10. This visual and interactive approach helps solidify the foundational concept of addition in young learners.

Your Turn to Add! – Count objects in pictures – Write the addition sentence – For example, 3 apples + 2 apples – Use ‘+’ and ‘=’ signs – Find the total sum – Add the numbers to get the sum up to 10 | This slide is an interactive activity for first-grade students to practice addition with visual aids. Students will count objects in pictures provided in their worksheets or on the board, then write the corresponding addition sentence using the ‘+’ and ‘=’ signs. Emphasize the importance of counting carefully and forming the number sentence correctly. The goal is to find the total sum, ensuring it does not exceed 10. Teachers should circulate the room to assist students as needed and provide immediate feedback. Possible activities include using physical objects like blocks or counters, drawing items on the board, or providing printed worksheets with images. Encourage students to explain their thought process as they count and add.

Adding Up to 10 with Pictures – Learn to add numbers up to 10 – Practice with picture examples – Look at pictures, count items, and add them – Numbers combine to make new numbers – 2 apples + 3 apples = 5 apples – 10 is the largest number we make – We can’t go over 10, it’s our number limit | This slide introduces first graders to the concept of addition within the number limit of 10. Start by explaining that smaller numbers can be combined to create larger numbers, but not larger than 10. Use visual aids like pictures of apples or other familiar items to help them understand the concept of adding two groups together. For example, show 2 apples and 3 apples, then combine them to show a total of 5 apples. Emphasize that the sum of the numbers they are adding should not exceed 10. Encourage students to use their fingers or objects to practice adding up to 10. This hands-on activity will help solidify their understanding of basic addition.

Class Activity: Picture Addition – Complete a picture addition worksheet – Use pictures for finding sums – Count objects in pictures to add up to 10 – Partner up for teamwork – Share ideas and solve problems together – Class review of answers | This activity is designed to reinforce the concept of addition using visual aids. Provide students with worksheets that have various pictures, each representing a number. Students should count the objects in the pictures and add them together to find sums up to 10. Encourage them to work in pairs to foster collaboration and peer learning. After the activity, gather the class and go over the worksheet answers, allowing students to discuss how they found their sums and to correct any misunderstandings. Possible variations of the activity could include using stickers, drawing their own pictures, or even using physical objects like blocks or counters to represent the numbers.

Great Job Adding! – Adding with pictures is fun! – Adding shows total items – If we have 3 apples and 2 apples, we add to find we have 5 apples in total. – Keep practicing at home – Try adding toys, snacks, or crayons. – You’re becoming an addition star! | This slide is a conclusion to reinforce the concept of addition using pictures for first graders. It’s meant to celebrate their achievement in learning a new math skill and to encourage them to continue practicing. Emphasize the practicality of addition in everyday life, such as combining groups of objects to find a total. Suggest fun ways for them to practice, like adding their toys or snacks. The goal is to leave the students feeling accomplished and motivated to use their new skills outside of the classroom.
