Numeracy

Numeracy is all about numbers, counting, and arithmetic. It's like when you learn how to count and add up numbers so you can do things like buy candy, share toys, or play games with your friends.

Being numerate means being comfortable and confident with numbers. It means you can use numbers to solve problems and understand the world around you. Think of it like a superpower that helps you make sense of things with numbers.

For example, counting how many pieces of candy you have helps you know how many you can eat or share. Adding up how many players are on each team helps you decide which team is bigger or smaller. And knowing how many fingers you have helps you count to ten.

Being numerate doesn't mean you have to be a math wizard. It just means having a basic understanding of numbers and how to use them in everyday situations. With practice and patience, anyone can improve their numeracy skills and become more comfortable with numbers.
