Let’s understand the idea.
- Keep the whole amount fixed.
- Move a counter from one part to the other. One part grows while the other shrinks.
- Different pairs can name the same whole: 5 is 1 and 4, or 2 and 3, or 0 and 5.
Try it. Change it. Explain it.
Open the lesson to use its pictures and controls. In How it works, connect the picture to the idea. In Play & discover, change the quantities and notice what stays the same. In Your turn, answer questions and use the explanation to check your reasoning.
You can ask for help, draw on the thinking pad, or listen to the question and answer options. Progress distinguishes independent work from work completed with help.
