In the lesson titled "Drawing Addition Story Problems," kindergarten students will embark on a creative and educational journey to deepen their understanding of addition within the context of story problems. This lesson is an integral part of the "Addition and Subtraction Story Problems" chapter, falling under the unit focused on "Additional Practice with Numbers up to 20." Through engaging activities, such as the "Under the Sea Addition Worksheet" and the "Frog Life Cycle Addition Worksheet," students will learn to visualize and solve addition problems by drawing them.
This approach emphasizes the importance of narrative in learning mathematical concepts, making it easier for young learners to grasp and retain the idea of addition. By associating numbers with real-life objects and scenarios, such as sea creatures and stages in a frog's life cycle, students not only practice addition but also enhance their critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Learning to solve addition story problems through drawing is a foundational skill that supports future mathematical proficiency. It nurtures creativity, improves comprehension, and makes learning math a fun and relatable experience. This lesson is vital for building a strong numerical foundation in young learners, setting the stage for their success in math and beyond.
When you look at a picture of the undersea world, what cartoon or character first comes to your child’s mind? If your kids regularly watch the nature channel, or are interested in undersea animals, then they would greatly enjoy thins worksheet. In the picture, there are all kinds of undersea creatures; you can ask your kids to first identify them. Then, use the picture to solve the word problems at the bottom of the page. Check the box next to the correct answer.
Frogs are very interesting creatures, and they go through a cycle before they turn into the adult frog we all know. Look at this worksheet with your kids. There are two simple word problems in the picture. Help them read the word problems aloud, and point at the pictures showing all the different life cycles of the frog. Then, help your kids add the simple equations, and circle the correct answer.
