Asked ‘How old next time?’, a 3-year-old says ‘Four’ showing four fingers; but objects when seeing them held together two by two: ‘That is not four, that is two twos!’ A child thus sees what exists in the world, bundles of 2s, and 2 of them. So, adapting to Many, children develop bundle-numbers with units as 2 2s having 1 1s as the unit, i.e. a tile, also occurring as bundle-of-bundles, e.g. 3 3s, 5 5s or ten tens.
Recounting 8 in 2s as 8 = (8/2)x2 gives a recount-formula T = (T/B)xB saying ‘From the total T, T/B times, B can be pushed away’ occurring all over mathematics and science. It solves equations: ux2 = 8 = (8/2)x2, so u = 8/2. And it changes units when adding on-top, or when adding next-to as areas as in calculus, also occurring when adding per-numbers or fractions coming from double-counting in two units. Finally, double-counting sides in a tile halved by its diagonal leads to trigonometry.

The following papers present close to 50 micro-curricula in Mastering Many inspired by the bundle-numbers children bring to school.
