Activity 1 Different Ways to Subtract

Yesterday, we saw Diego’s method to find the value of .

Diego’s way

Ten frame. 7 counters not crossed out. 3 counters crossed out.
Ten frame. 5 red counters crossed out.

Tyler’s way

Ten frame, full. Red, 8. Yellow, 2.
Ten frame. 5 yellow counters.

Find the value of each difference using Diego’s way, then using Tyler’s way.
