About

Ride the bus with Tilly the turtle and solve stories where 1 more kid gets on or 1 kid gets off. Kindergartners count back from 20, choose how many friends are singing, and learn that adding 1 gives the next number and taking away 1 gives the number before. Every direction is read aloud, wrong answers get a gentle spoken hint, and the last story checks the skill on its own.

What's included

  • 17 narrated scenes with a read-aloud voice for pre-readers
  • 6 graded story questions with spoken hints

Learning objectives

  • Count back from 20 and from 10.
  • Solve a story where 1 more joins a group, and one where 1 leaves.
  • Use the next number for adding 1 and the number before for taking away 1.
