Counting numbers have an order. Each number comes one after the last one. The next number is always one more.
Tap each star and count out loud.
Try it together
Mia has 5 stickers. Her dad gives her one more sticker. Mia does not count again. She just says the next number: 6.
Tap each star and count out loud.
Good to know
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.
