Counting numbers have an order. Each number comes one after the last one. The next number is always one more.
Mia has 5 stickers. Her dad gives her one more sticker. Mia does not count again. She just says the next number: 6.
To find one more, just say the next counting number. One more than 7 is 8. To find one less, say the number just before. One less than 4 is 3.
One more is always the very next counting number you say.

1.2: Topic B- Counting
Numbers grow by one each time: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Each number is one more than the one before it.
If you have 4 blocks and one more block arrives, you have 5. One more always means the next number in the count.
1.6: Topic F- More Counting
One less goes the other way. Each number is one less than the one after it. One less than 6 is 5.
Walk the numbers both ways. Up: 4, 5, 6. Down: 6, 5, 4.
1.1 Introduction to Whole Numbers
Adding one block to a set of 5 makes 6. The set grows, but only by a single step.
Spot one more anywhere. One more sticker, one more step, one more duck. Small grows happen all day long.
Adding 1s and 10s guided practice
Adding 1 is the fastest add of all. The answer is just the next number: one more than 7 is 8.
Adding 10 jumps a whole ten: 10 more than 4 is 14. Ones stay the same while tens grow by one.
