Max Maths, Year 1, Work Book, Subtraction using number bonds

The Max Maths workbook for Year 1 provides engaging exercises to help students practice subtraction using number bonds. In Practice 3, students are tasked with completing subtraction sentences and corresponding number bonds. They are presented with various subtraction problems, such as blank minus blank equals blank, and are required to fill in the missing numbers to complete the equations. The activity reinforces their understanding of how numbers can be broken down and recombined through subtraction.

Moving on to the next sections of the workbook, students are given opportunities to match pictures to number bonds, further exploring the concept of subtraction within the framework of number relationships. They are also asked to complete number bonds by finding the missing numbers. A more advanced activity has students matching subtraction sentences to their respective number bonds, solidifying the connection between the two. Additionally, students are encouraged to identify subtraction equations that result in the same answer, demonstrating their comprehension of equivalence in subtraction. The workbook concludes with an exercise where children use provided numbers and signs to form their own subtraction sentences, allowing them to apply their knowledge creatively.
