Subtraction

We are working on subtraction and I wanted to share this strategy with parents so that you can help your child at home.

Subtraction can be taught at home with every-day items. Such as "You had 10 tater tots. You have eaten 4. How many do you have left?" or "We are were going to buy 5 boxes of cereal.  The store only has 3 of the kinds we want.  How many boxes are we going to buy now?"
