A pack is more than a plus sign
Model equal groups and a separate extra amount, then tell someone what the answer counts.
Choose one job
A
Make three pretend craft trays with four paper pieces each and two spare pieces.
B
Plan five tiny building kits with five blocks each and four loose repair blocks.
C
Seven display panels each need eight caption cards; keep six spare cards.
Make your own plan
Make/draw, talk/sign/point/dictate, type or use paper. Label what each quantity counts. Check your work and make a useful message for the organiser. Try one instruction at a time, a quiet place, a pause or larger pieces. A/B/C are choices, not labels for people.
