Making Ten is essential for the Mathematics Common Core's K-2 standards. Making ten is a great strategy for students to understand odd and even, addition and subtraction, and begin using mental math when mastering adding and subtraction fluency. In this lesson, teachers should have already taught the skill of making ten using ten frames and introducing number bonds. Students will take this understanding to a new level. Students use their knowledge of the number 10 to solve missing addends ad

Students learn the key words to look for in word problems that allow them to know they will be subtracting. There are teaching and practice slides. If you use Math Journals, there is plenty of key information to write down for later studying. Look for the "Subtraction WP Exit Slip" for $0.75

This exit slip goes with the Power Point entitled "Subtraction Word Problem Intro." It quickly assesses the students on their knowledge of subtraction word problems, right after the lesson.
