Teddy Bear Patterns

Entry #3 in our personal family math propaganda agenda. You don't have to be good at it, you just have to accept it into your heart!!!

So I read this before, by myself, and was like, How obfuscating! That is not at all my mental model for addition! I also was annoyed by the topsy turvey gummy bears.

My kid, however, picked it out, “What's thisssss?” And then enjoyed it. The rhyming was good (the kids always take to rhyming). We said some numbers. We did some concepts. I feel like the jump from “patterns exist” -> programming will be short. So we'll be on “Teach your kid Python” next. Maybe.

Anyway, a decent entry. I'm going to keep the math flowing HARD at this house, you hear me!!!
