Introduction
Numbers play a vital role in our daily lives, helping us organize and manage various tasks. We've
used them for counting, as well as performing basic operations like addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and division to solve everyday problems.
Examples of Situations Where We Use Numbers:
Telling Time: We use numbers to read the time on a clock.
Shopping: Numbers are used to calculate the total cost of items and to manage money.
Cooking: Recipes often require specific measurements of ingredients, which involve
numbers.
Traveling: Numbers help us understand distances, speed, and time during travel.
Sports: Scores, time limits, and player statistics all involve numbers.
SUBTOPICS:
NUMBERS CAN TELL US THINGS
Imagine a scenario where students are lined up for a school race. Each student announces a
number, which represents something about their position in the line
Let’s figure out what these numbers might mean:
A student says ‘1’ if there is one faster runner next to them.
A student says ‘2’ if both students next to them are faster.
A student says ‘0’ if neither of the students next to them is faster.
In this case, each student is counting how many of their neighbours are faster runners.
