Addition Learning

Addition is a process which children learn quite naturally as soon as they learn to start counting. During kindergarten and first grade, adding piles of objects together is really important and reinforces childrens understanding of place value and 1:1 correspondence.

Later on, when children are confident adding piles of objects together, they can progress on to number lines or counting on in their heads. When children have understood this, they can begin to learn their addition facts and progress on to column addition. At 4th and 5th grade level, they start adding decimals.

Knowing your addition facts is still a key skill that children need to be able to use in real life math - you may not always have a pencil and paper to hand to do your column addition, but you will always have your addition facts!

Meet Sonny, the 2024 Gerber Baby who will be this year's face of the brand

The 2024 Gerber Baby has been crowned as the latest face of the iconic brand.

Gerber announced Tuesday that the winner of the 14th annual photo search and the new Gerber baby for this year is 1-year-old Akil McLeod, known as Sonny.

Sonny lives in Arizona with his parents, Dominque and Akil McLeod Sr., and big sister, Sage, according to a release from Gerber. He loves reading his squishy ABC book, playing with toy cars and watching football with his family.

“Every day it’s an honor to watch Sonny conquer so many tiny achievements, from giggles, to trying new foods, to standing up and everything in between," Dominque McLeod said in a release. "He’s a light in our lives and brings joy to everyone around him. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate his first birthday than to be chosen as the 2024 Gerber Baby. We look forward to all the adventures in the year ahead collaborating with Gerber to share his sweet smile with families across the country.” 

Top baby names 2024: Girl name? Boy name? New parents care less about gender in naming their babies

Sonny 'captured hearts with his joyful smile' to become 2024 Gerber Baby

"After 14 incredible years of Photo Search, this year, we are grateful our former Gerber Baby families could join us in selecting Sonny as our 2024 Gerber Baby," Chandra Kumar, President of Nestlé Infant Nutrition, said in a release. "Sonny immediately captured our hearts with his joyful smile and his family’s inspiring demonstration of what it means to grow with love."

Sonny was selected by from a panel of Gerber employees as well as parents of previous Gerber Babies. In addition to selecting Sonny as this year's Gerber Baby, Gerber announced Tuesday that 10 additional babies will be selected as winners of "Inchstone" moments that will be announced on the brand's social media channels.

What does the 2024 Gerber Baby win?

As the 2024 Gerber Baby, Sonny and his family have been awarded a $25,000 cash prize, free Gerber products for up to one year and a new wardrobe provided by Gerber Childrenswear, as well as prizes from other companies.

He will also be featured on Gerber's social media channels and marketing campaigns throughout the year.

Jared McCain Lays Out Key Goals for Rookie Season With Sixers

Justin grasso | 9 hours ago.

• Philadelphia 76ers
• Duke Blue Devils

Duke guard Jared McCain is set to join the Philadelphia 76ers for the 2024-2025 NBA season.

Despite the countless rumors about the Sixers looking to part ways with the 16th overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Philly waited patiently to go on the clock before making the pick that they seem more than happy with keeping.

“Very excited to welcome Jared McCain to the team,” said Sixers President of Basketball Operations, Daryl Morey. “Thrilled that we were able to have a pick to get a player of this quality.”

McCain enters the NBA as a 20-year-old freshman out of Duke. During his lone season in the NCAA, McCain appeared in 36 games, starting in every matchup. He stood out on both ends of the floor, producing 14 points while draining 46 percent of his field goals and knocking down 41 percent of his threes.

Defensively, McCain averaged five rebounds and one steal per game. While his size is one of his biggest knocks heading into his rookie year, the Duke guard is eager to show the hoops world that he’s ready to make an impact on the Sixers as early as possible.

“I do the social media, the nail painting, I do all that stuff, but basketball is obviously my main focus,” McCain claimed after hearing his name get called in Brooklyn. “This has been my dream since I was literally like five, four years old. So, I’m gonna do whatever I can just to win and bring a positive attitude and just have fun. I’m just joyful with life and I try to bring that everywhere I go.”

McCain admitted that there wasn’t much communication going down between the Sixers and himself. As Morey’s front office looked to keep a low profile during the pre-draft process, they watched McCain from a distance, hoping to see him still on the board at No. 16.

Now that he’s Philly bound, McCain looks forward to getting straight to work, improving in specific areas, which he laid out on Wednesday.

“During this process, I think just showing that I can be on the ball, make reads off pick and rolls and obviously continue to level up my footwork, shooting, and movement shooting,” McCain explained. “I know it’s gonna be challenging with defending. I think that’s the biggest challenge I get thrown at me a lot. I’m just excited to learn more, and a new challenge is something I’m always accepting.”
