Between Numbers

Between numbers lie in the middle of two numbers. The kids are always struggle with the concept of after,before and middle numbers. The middle number is one more than the previous number and one less than the next number. Here kids have to count the numbers serially. Here children can recognize the number on left side and number on the right side.

Example : 1) 8  10
Solution : Count the numbers serially from 1 by keeping your finger on 8
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, so after 8 there is 9 so in box write 9 and the next number is 10 which is already written so 9 is the correct answer. So we can write it as
8 , ( 9 ) , 10

Example : 2 10  12
Solution : Count the numbers serially from 8 by keeping your finger on 10
8,9,10, so after 10 there is 11 so in box write 11 and the next number is 12 which is already written so 11 is the correct answer. So we can write it as

10 , ( 11 ) , 12

Example : 3 15  17
Solution : Count the numbers serially from 10 by keeping your finger on 15
10,11,12,13,14,15, so after 15 there is 16 so in box write 16 and the next number is 17 which is already written so 16 is the correct answer. So we can write it as
15 , ( 16 ) , 17

The following worksheet is useful for the kids who are struggling with the middle numbers.
