Level: Level 2: Basic Addition & Subtraction

Topic: Single-Digit Addition

Description:

Add numbers within 0 to 9.

Single-digit addition involves adding two numbers, each ranging from 0 to 9, to find their total or sum. This skill helps children understand how numbers combine and introduces the concept of adding quantities together. It is an essential building block for more advanced math concepts like multi-digit addition, subtraction, and problem-solving.

Children learn to:
  1. Add numbers step by step: Combine small quantities to find the total.
  2. Use tools or strategies: Count on fingers, use a number line, or visualize objects to solve addition problems.
  3. Memorize basic facts: Over time, children memorize sums like 3 + 2 = 5 to solve problems quickly.

Examples:

    Adding with Fingers:
    • Problem: "What is 3 + 2?"
    • The child holds up 3 fingers on one hand and 2 fingers on the other, then counts: "1, 2, 3, 4, 5."
    • The answer is 5.
  1. Using Objects:
    • Problem: "What is 4 + 1?"
    • The teacher places 4 apples on a table and then adds 1 more apple. The child counts all the apples: "1, 2, 3, 4, 5."
    • The answer is 5.

By practicing single-digit addition, children build confidence with numbers and learn strategies to solve simple math problems efficiently!
