Teaching guide, sample answers and curriculum references
Before you begin
Subtract single-digit quantities and understand tens and ones.
How to use this worksheet
- Model the target skill: identify when borrowing from the tens place is necessary. Use the first task as a guided example before asking for an independent response.
- Check readiness first: Subtract single-digit quantities and understand tens and ones.
- Discuss an incorrect response using this distinction: After renaming one ten as ten ones, reduce the tens digit; do not leave both digits unchanged.
A common mistake to discuss
After renaming one ten as ten ones, reduce the tens digit; do not leave both digits unchanged.
What to practice next
Represent one borrowing step with tens and ones and check the difference by addition.
Example: 62 - 37 = 25.
