Max Maths, Year 2, Practice, Subtraction within 100

In the 'Max Maths' workbook for Year 2, students are encouraged to practice their subtraction skills within the number range of 100. This particular exercise starts with a visual and interactive task where students must cross out blocks to find differences between pairs of numbers. For example, in part (a), they are asked to calculate the difference between 87 and 44, while part (b) presents the subtraction problem 58 minus 12. The exercise aims to help children visualise the subtraction process and understand the concept of 'finding the difference' as a form of subtraction.

The practice continues with more straightforward subtraction problems, where students must calculate the answers without the aid of visual blocks. Problems range from 35 minus 14 to 91 minus 74, covering a variety of two-digit numbers. This section, titled 'Let's Practise', is designed to reinforce the students' ability to perform mental subtraction and enhance their numerical fluency. After completing these exercises, students are directed to continue their practice on workbook pages 49 to 50, ensuring they get ample opportunity to master subtraction within 100.
