Operations with natural numbers I

INTRODUCTION

In this unit, basic concepts of natural numbers are revised and the operations of addition and subtraction are practised.

Numbers that appear in each window are generated at random. This allows you to use the window indefinitely and practise a lot of different exercises. Numbers consist of only one or two figures so the calculations can easily be done mentally.

Magic squares are used in the exercises, however the main objective of this unit is to learn things about natural numbers.

OBJECTIVES

To identify values which are natural numbers
To be able to produce a graphical representation of several natural numbers on a line.
To put in order the values of several natural numbers
To add up natural numbers
To make proper use of the addition properties.
To subtract natural numbers
To understand how subtraction is different from addition. The position of the numbers has to be preserved and the larger one has to be put first.
To train in mental calculation of addition and subtraction
