Definition: The act of adding anything.
Alright class, settle down and listen close to me,
We’re going to talk about something simple, you see!
That dictionary definition, “the act of adding anything,”
Is a good starting point, let's make it sing!
Addition
is like building blocks, one by one,
Putting numbers together ‘til the work is done.
It’s taking two or more things and making them whole,
Like sharing cookies with a happy soul!
Let's say you have three apples, bright and red,
And then your friend gives you two – what do you instead?
You add those numbers together, it’s plain to see,
Three plus two equals five, happily!
So addition means combining, adding up with glee,
It’s a fundamental math skill for you and me!
Do you have any questions about this simple art? Don't hesitate to ask,
Let’s build our understanding, before the day is past!
