Mortensen Math Users. 4 Year Old Math Enrichment. A bright 4 year old has a fun time playing math. Before we knew it an hour had gone by. I remembered to take the camera out after about 20 minutes...we had already done some counting, added random numbers together and then started adding pairs, starting easy 1+1 and working our way up to 9+9. All 45 addends will be mastered using base ten blocks.
I enlarged the photos in this post a little for those who use Pinterest. Then we did some multiplication and division. He likes division because he only has to count one side. Then we have fun counting and building 20 sixes. And even more fun knocking them down. A free time wall. On to some algebra puzzles. The men help him count the sides. This one problem teaches him about counting, addends, factoring, multiplication and algebra all in one lesson.
He took a while figuring out which blocks to make his 15 with, he has some experience factoring so he knows a 10 and a 5 aren't going to cut it. At last he has decided on 5's.
