Oh Are We Seeing Double?

In the next few days, our math includes “DOUBLES” problems.  Here is our doubles rap and doubles “pictures” we are starting to learn.  Use these to help start memorizing your doubles!

Here’s how we’re making mental pictures of our doubles
2 + 2 = 4      Picture a wagon with 2 wheels on each side and 4 wheels total
3 + 3 = 6      Picture a 6 pack of soft drinks, with 3 cans on each side
4 + 4 = 8      Picture a spider with 4 legs on each side and 8 legs total
5 + 5 = 10   Picture 5 fingers on each hand and 10 fingers total
6 + 6 = 12   Picture a dozen of eggs with 6 eggs in each row and 12 eggs total
7 + 7 = 14   Picture two weeks on a calendar with 7 days in each week and 14 days total
8 + 8 = 16   Picture a 16 pack of crayons with 8 crayons in each row and 16 crayons total
9 + 9 = 18   Picture a semi (18 wheeler) with 9 wheels on each side and 18 wheels total
10 + 10 = 20  Picture all your fingers and toes for a total of 20
