Hi, my son is really struggling with basic addition / subtraction. Even adding 1 on. The only way he 'gets' it is if I use chocolate buttons or something similar and say if I give you '#' more how many would you have? He can't seem to relate that to actual sums though or even through counting fingers.
Anyone got any other fun or good ideas I can try to get it to sink in?
