Addition (age 5)



Exercise 1 (age 5): Benny surprisingly liked this addition video on YouTube.

Results: Benny memorized how to add 1 and 0 to small, one-digit numbers.  He also got exposed to the "+" and "=" signs.

Exercise 2 (age 4):  Flash cards with dots.




Results: Awesome.  Benny understood the concept immediately.  However, he still has to count the dots most of the time.
