We are working on subtraction of two and three digit numbers in Math this week. All the boys and girls are asked to practice their skills at home. Moms and Dads, could you provide subtraction questions where regrouping is required?
Problems such as:
Mrs. M has 71 stickers and Mr. M has 57 stickers. How many more stickers does Mrs. M have than Mr. M?
I like word problems because they provide a higher level of practice.
We've talked a lot about that phrase: "how many more", along with its cousins "how much longer, how much bigger" and "how much further". They all mean ya'll need to subtract!
Speaking of stickers, do you remember spending your recesses trading these scratch and sniff stickers? Did you have a fancy-dancy sticker book or did you use a photo-album that your mom bought you at K-Mart? Good times.
