Today is our day we do some work on our subtraction skills.
Warm Up:
Go on a number hunt around the house and find as many numbers as you can – when you find a number, take away 1 from it e.g. if you find the number 16, take away 1 and your answer is 15
Remember – when you take away 1 you just go to the number before
What is the biggest number you can find? I managed to find the number 100 in a book so I took 1 away and wrote down 99. Can you beat me and find an even bigger number?
Main Activity:
Write down your subtraction sums in your jotter and then answer them
If you find it easier, you can draw the pictures to help you solve each problem – cross out the amount to take away, then count how many are left
