Lesson details
Key learning points
- Adding one gives one more.
- Subtracting one gives one less.
Keywords
One more - The number after a given number is one more than it.

Common misconception
Children may struggle to count on from, or back from, a given number.
Encourage automaticity with the counting sequence through regular practice. At times, pause so that children need to predict the number that is one more/less. Initially, you may need to model silently counting from one through to the given number.
