In this episode of the Kindergarten Cafe podcast, I go into the foundational aspects of teaching addition to kindergarteners. Emphasizing the progression from concrete objects to abstract representations, I want to stress the importance of utilizing diverse strategies like counting all, counting on, and drawing to foster understanding. We also discuss engaging activities such as dice games and Play-Doh addition to make learning interactive and effective. By encouraging flexibility in problem-solving approaches and demonstrating the relevance of mathematical concepts, I aim to support students in mastering addition skills.

In this episode I share:

  • Foundation in Counting
  • Teaching Addition Strategies
  • Hands-On Addition Activities
  • Practice with Dice Games
  • Solving Problems with Drawing
