A word problem is a math story.
In all means you add.
You have 4 crackers. Your brother gives you 3 more. You could count them all again from 1, but you already know the first plate is 4.
Counting all from 1 works, but it is slow, and it gets slower as the numbers grow.
Counting on starts from a number you already trust, so there is less to count and less to lose track of.
Start from the bigger number: for 3 + 4, say 4, then count on 5, 6, 7.
To add, start at the bigger number and count on the other one.
Saying the starting number as the first count: "4, 5, 6" for 4 + 3, and answering 6.
The starting number is what you already have. The counting begins with the first new cracker: 5.
5 ducks are on a pond. 4 more come. How many ducks now? — 9. Start at 5 and count on 4: 6, 7, 8, 9. 5 + 4 = 9.
Mia has 3 red apples. Then she picks 2 more green apples. How many apples does she have in all?
First, let's show the 3 red apples Mia already has.
Now the 2 green apples she just picked.
Adding means joining the groups together. Let's count them all!
One, two, three, four, five. That's five apples!
We can write this as three plus two.
Three plus two equals five.
Mia has 5 apples in all. Adding joins groups together. Great work!
