Loop Card Game - Subtract 1 digit
Maths Resource Description
The Loop Card Game by KS2Gems is an educational and engaging activity designed to help Year 3 students practice subtraction with three-digit and one-digit numbers. The game consists of a series of cards, each displaying a three-digit number followed by a subtraction of a single digit, leading to a new three-digit number on the next card. For example, one card might show "478 - 1" and the answer "477" would be on the next card. This sequence continues, creating a loop where each card connects to the next through a subtraction problem, hence the name "Loop Cards."
These cards serve as a fun and interactive way for children to reinforce their subtraction skills. Each set of loop cards is specifically designed for Year 3 students and focuses on subtracting one-digit numbers from three-digit numbers. The game can be played individually or in groups, with the aim of completing the loop correctly by finding the card that continues the sequence. This not only helps with understanding subtraction but also with number sequencing and recognition. The Loop Card Game is a resourceful tool for teachers and parents to aid in developing children's arithmetic proficiency in a playful and stimulating manner.
