What’s in the printable worksheets?
In these ten printable exercise pages for children, there are examples where two numbers need to be subtracted.
The parent should demonstrate how to subtract using fingers, or provide counters.
Whenever possible, the child should practice subtraction in mind rather than using fingers or counters.
By doing these examples, the child practices subtraction and digit recognition
Who are the tasks intended for?
The subtraction worksheets up to 20 are suitable for preschool and first-grade children – six-year-olds, five-year-olds, and even four-year-olds. However, it depends on each child individually, and parents should definitely monitor whether the child is managing with the tasks.
If parents see that the task is too difficult, perhaps they should take a step back and focus on addition up to 10, addition up to 20, or addition with unknown addends. When subtraction up to 20 becomes too easy, you can move on to the next level – subtraction within twenty.
