Counting 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5
Let's learn something cool about counting. Every time we count to the next number, we add just one more!
Here is one apple. We say one.
Add one more apple. Now we have two!
Add one more. Now we have three!
Add one more. Four apples!
Add one more. Five apples!
Look — each new number is just one more than the one before.
When you count, the next number is always one more. You're a counting star!
