Friday: Freddy's measuring game

Freddy the Frog lays a long ruler by the pond.

"Ribbit! A ruler is like a number line," he says.

"Watch me jump along it."

Lizzy holds up her magnifying glass to watch each hop.

"Every jump is one inch," she says. "Let us count!"

Game 1: Jump on the number line

Freddy starts at 8. He jumps 5 more inches.

He lands on 13. So 8 plus 5 is 13.
