Max Maths, Year 2, Try it, Subtraction within 100 (2)

In Max Maths for Year 2, students are encouraged to practice their subtraction skills within 100. The 'Try it' section provides a hands-on approach to learning subtraction by using visual aids. For example, in question 3, children are asked to complete subtraction problems by crossing out blocks to find the differences between two numbers. They are tasked with determining the difference between 87 and 44 in part (a), and calculating 58 minus 12 in part (b). Further, they need to work out the subtraction of 43 minus 28 in part (c), and find the result of 92 minus 66 in part (d).

The 'Let’s Practise' section offers additional subtraction problems to reinforce the students' understanding and proficiency in subtracting numbers within 100. This includes exercises such as subtracting 14 from 35, and 21 from 54, among others. Each problem is formatted in a simple equation style, allowing students to focus on the calculation process. For further practice and to solidify their learning, students are directed to complete exercises on workbook pages 49 to 50. These activities are designed to build confidence in subtraction and to develop a strong foundation in basic arithmetic skills for Year 2 students.
