A subtraction problem appears at the top of your screen, asking you to find the answer. You need to look at the choices below and tap the one that matches the correct result.
- Read the numbers in the subtraction question shown on the screen.
- Do the math in your head or use your fingers to count backwards.
- Tap the bubble containing the number you calculated.
👶 What to expect at ages 5-9
Children often find taking away harder than combining groups. You might notice them pausing slightly when the answer involves 'bridging ten' or borrowing.
🏠 At home and in class
Play a round together and ask, 'How many are left?' after each tap. Use real objects like snacks or toys to show how the numbers get smaller.
💡 Tips
- If you see two identical numbers (like 5 - 5), the answer is always zero.
- Counting backwards from the first number is a fast trick for small subtractions.
