What are some ways to teach even and odd #ers?
My son doesn’t have any conditions, but he did struggle a little with the concept of numbers being even and odd. As he was a little too small to understand what “divisible by 2” meant, I drew the numbers on a white board, like this: 1 3 5 7 9 0 2 4 6 8 10 I explained that the upper numbers are ALWAYS odd and the bottom numbers are ALWAYS even. Then I explained that any number ending with an upper number is odd and any number ending with a lower number is even. I knew he had gotten it when I could ask him if some outrageous number like 824, 615, 209 was odd or even and he’d say “odd”. I hope this helps. All the best. Edit: I couldn’t get the numbers to space out properly, in my example. The upper numbers should fall above the spaces in the lower line.
