Let’s Learn Subtraction!

Subtraction is like magic! You take something away, and you see what’s left. Let’s have fun with subtraction and learn together!

What is Subtraction?

Subtraction means taking away. When you subtract, you find out how many are left. It’s like when you have 5 candies, and you eat 2. How many candies do you have now? That’s subtraction!

Let’s Practice Subtracting 2

We are going to subtract 2 from different numbers. Are you ready? Let’s go!

  • 10 – 2 = 8
  • 12 – 2 = 10
  • 9 – 2 = 7
  • 4 – 2 = 2
  • 11 – 2 = 9
  • 3 – 2 = 1
  • 13 – 2 = 11
  • 2 – 2 = 0
  • 5 – 2 = 3
  • 7 – 2 = 5
  • 14 – 2 = 12
  • 6 – 2 = 4

Your Turn to Answer!

Now, you try to answer before I do. Let’s see how many you can get right!

  • 14 – 2 = 12
  • 11 – 2 = 9
  • 7 – 2 = 5
  • 9 – 2 = 7
  • 5 – 2 = 3
  • 10 – 2 = 8

Try It on Your Own!

Now it’s your turn to try all by yourself. You can do it!

  • 4 – 2 = 2
  • 7 – 2 = 5
  • 10 – 2 = 8
  • 3 – 2 = 1
  • 6 – 2 = 4
  • 14 – 2 = 12
  • 8 – 2 = 6

  • 2 – 2 = 0
  • 5 – 2 = 3
  • 12 – 2 = 10

Remember!

Subtraction is fun! You take away, and you find out what’s left. Keep practicing, and you’ll be a subtraction star!

With two eyes, two ears, and two thumbs up, let’s keep learning and having fun with subtraction!

  • Can you think of a time when you had to share something with a friend or family member? How did you decide how much to give away, and how much did you have left?
  • Imagine you have 10 toys, and you give 2 to a friend. How many toys do you have now? Can you think of other things you might share or subtract in your daily life?
  • Why do you think subtraction is important? Can you think of any games or activities where you use subtraction without even realizing it?
  1. Subtraction Scavenger Hunt: Go on a subtraction scavenger hunt around your house or classroom. Find 10 small objects like toys or blocks. Start with 10 and take away 2 each time. How many are left? Write down your answers and see if you can find a pattern!

  2. Subtraction Story Time: Create a short story using subtraction. For example, “Once upon a time, there were 8 apples on a tree. A little bird came and took 2 apples away. How many apples are left on the tree?” Draw pictures to go with your story and share it with a friend or family member.

  3. Subtraction in Nature: Next time you go to a park or garden, look for groups of things like flowers or leaves. Count how many there are and then imagine taking 2 away. How many would be left? Use your fingers to help you count and share your findings with someone!

Here’s a sanitized version of the provided YouTube transcript:

With two eyes, two ears, and two thumbs up,
let’s learn our subtraction facts all mixed up.

Subtract 2 from each number:
10 – 2 = 8
12 – 2 = 10
9 – 2 = 7
4 – 2 = 2
11 – 2 = 9
3 – 2 = 1
13 – 2 = 11
2 – 2 = 0
5 – 2 = 3
7 – 2 = 5
14 – 2 = 12
6 – 2 = 4

Now you answer before me:
14 – 2 = 12
11 – 2 = 9
7 – 2 = 5
9 – 2 = 7
5 – 2 = 3
10 – 2 = 8
8 – 2 = 6
3 – 2 = 1
6 – 2 = 4
12 – 2 = 10
2 – 2 = 0
4 – 2 = 2
13 – 2 = 11

Now you answer on your own:
4 – 2 = 2
7 – 2 = 5
10 – 2 = 8
3 – 2 = 1
6 – 2 = 4
14 – 2 = 12
8 – 2 = 6
9 – 2 = 7
11 – 2 = 9
13 – 2 = 11
2 – 2 = 0
5 – 2 = 3
12 – 2 = 10

Subtraction: you take away.
Subtraction: you get what’s left.
Subtraction: you take away.
Subtraction: you get the difference.
