Not only does the story engage children it can also serve as a foundation for many mathematical investigations for primary mathematicians. Making simple number sentences and equations can be challenging for young mathematicians. Extending to unknown and comparison situations is pivotal for children to build solid fluency with their initial number facts.

Connecting this study to a familiar story makes these activities more engaging for students. Additional literacy connections are suggested for use with introducing the concept of doubles. Questions are provided that can be used during the development of the activity to determine the desired focus of the lesson. It is very important that young mathematicians understand that numbers are quantities represented by numerals, pictures, numerals, etc.
