Common misconception
Children may incorrectly identify the even number 'before' or 'after' the one given.
Provide practice in the form of missing number problems where children must identify the even numbers before or after one given. Do this until fluent. Initially, allow children to use a number line. Remove this scaffold once feeling more confident.
