How to train an Add 1 robot

This is an alternative to Yishay's version. It uses 0 rather than 1 in the example box since there is then no risk that one might copy the 1 in the box rather than get a fresh 1 from Tooly. And this way the example produces the natural numbers rather than the natural numbers greater than 1.

It is also much more succient. This is good and bad. I assume that the children already understand about erasing things in thought bubbles with Dusty and don't need to be told. I think too many intermediate steps can be confusing though of course too few can be confusing as well.

I agree this is better. Should it replace mine? How do we manage these tutorials? would be best if they could be listed as versions / alternatives for the same objective, and we could have some community evolutionary process of selection.

In the thought bubble: 1st step - copy the number and give to the bird; 2nd step - add 1, we can use de first number of the sequence. In that way, for example, if I want start in 25 I just put 25.

Ken,

Maybe you should make this report a "tutorial", so that it gets listed on "help / tutorials".?
