Today we are going to discuss one of the basic operations in mathematics: addition. Who can tell me what addition is?
Addition is when we combine two numbers, right?
Exactly! When we add, we combine numbers to find the total. For example, if we add 2 and 3, we get 5. You can remember this with the phrase 'adding is accumulating.'
Can you give us another example?
Sure! If we add 4 + 7, what do we get?
That would be 11!
Great job! Remember, addition is like bringing friends together. Let's summarize: addition combines numbers to give a total.
Now that we understand addition, let's talk about subtraction. What is subtraction?
It's taking one number away from another?
Exactly! Subtraction finds the difference between numbers. For example, if you have 10 apples and eat 4, how many do you have left?
You would have 6 left!
Right! To remember subtraction, think of it as 'taking away.' In summary, subtraction helps us find what's left after removing a part.
Let's move on to multiplication. What do you think multiplication means?
Is it like adding the same number several times?
Exactly! For instance, 4 multiplied by 3 means adding 4 three times: 4 + 4 + 4, which equals 12. We can remember multiplication with 'groups of.'
Got it! So 5 x 2 would be 5 + 5?
That's correct! To recap, multiplication helps us quickly calculate how many items we have in grouped scenarios.
Finally, let's discuss division. What does dividing numbers mean?
It splits a number into equal parts, right?
Correct! If we take 12 and divide it by 4, how many equal parts do we get?
That would be 3 parts!
Exactly! Division is about sharing equally. You can remember: 'division is distribution.' Let's summarize that division allows us to find out how many groups we can form from a total.

● Addition: Combining two numbers.
Addition is the mathematical operation of finding the total or sum by combining two or more numbers. For example, if you have 2 apples and you get 3 more apples, you add them together: 2 + 3 = 5 apples.
Think of addition like putting together a collection of your favorite stickers. If you have 5 star stickers and you buy 3 heart stickers, how many stickers do you have now? Simply add them: 5 + 3 = 8 stickers.
● Subtraction: Finding the difference between two numbers.
Subtraction is the operation of taking one number away from another. It helps to find out how much remains or the difference between two quantities. If you have 10 candies and you give away 4, you perform the subtraction: 10 - 4 = 6 candies left.
Imagine you have a box with 10 chocolates. If you eat 3 chocolates, how many are left in the box? You would calculate it as 10 - 3 = 7 chocolates remaining.
● Multiplication: Repeated addition of the same number.
Multiplication is a mathematical operation where you add a number to itself a certain number of times. For example, multiplying 4 by 3 (4 × 3) means adding 4 three times: 4 + 4 + 4 = 12.
Think of multiplication like filling up boxes with toys. If each box holds 5 toys and you have 4 boxes, how many toys do you have in total? You can multiply: 5 toys/box × 4 boxes = 20 toys.
● Division: Splitting a number into equal parts.
Division is the operation of splitting a number into equal parts. It answers the question of how many times one number is contained within another. For example, dividing 12 by 3 means determining how many groups of 3 can fit into 12: 12 ÷ 3 = 4.
Imagine you have 12 cookies and want to share them equally among 3 friends. How many cookies does each friend get? You would divide: 12 cookies ÷ 3 friends = 4 cookies per friend.

See how the concepts apply in real-world scenarios to understand their practical implications.
For addition, if we add 5 + 7, we get 12.
For subtraction, 15 - 6 equals 9.
For multiplication, 3 x 4 can be written as 3 + 3 + 3 + 3, which equals 12.
For division, if we divide 20 by 5, we are determining how many groups of 5 are in 20, which is 4.
Use mnemonics, acronyms, or visual cues to help remember key information more easily.
When you add, you grow, if you take away, it’s a show. Multiply to stack, divide to track!
Once there was a baker who made 10 pies. If he gave away 4, how many did he keep? He learned to add and subtract to find what remained.
Use the acronym A-S-M-D: 'Add, Subtract, Multiply, Divide' to remember the order of operations.
